@Amardeep100115 ,

 

Create a list type of query parameter and create three params like 

Occup\FY18
Occup\FY19
Occup\FY20

 

When you open folder connector, you can select the defined query parameters above, after import all excel files in one subfolder, you can combine them as in the video you post shows:
