How to show "Content Created" date from excel files

 

 

Hello,

 

I am receiving weekly/monthly excel files, which I am using for Power BI as source and have a fix path, where the files are saved. I want to show the "content created" date as the "Date created" date is always the date when I am saving the files on my path.

 

Is it somehow possible to get the "content created" information out of my excel workbooks as I can see the "content created" date also in the folder explorer, but unfortunately when I am using "Get Data -> Folder -> folder path" I only get the "Date created" date.  

 

Many thanks and best regards,

Kai

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

I think that should be the data modified time.
