Is it possible for Pbi to display contents of .csv files in a blob storage?

Good morning, Pbi community. I have an ETL process that leaves .csv files in a blob storage account.

 

Ideally, I would like to have a PBi with a filter that lists the different files in the blob storage and then displays the data in a table once the file name is selected.

 

Can anyone recommend a tutorial or an example?

 

Thanks in advance

Thank you for your reply. Am I correct in that the end user would have to wait for me to run these steps as oppose to simply hitting refresh? Files are updating daily

Hi again, 

After publish in Power BI Service, you need to schedule a refresh for the dataset, so you can have the values in the report refreshed also. 

Remember to schedule after the files are totaly redreshed in the bob storage.
