Loading xml in power bi takes so much time Power BI

Hello.

 

I would like to ask how I could quicker import xml file, because there is a situation when importing 2 mb XML into Power BI takes about 1 hour. So it is so weird. How I could resolve this issue?

Whenever I select new tables, it evaluating and loading already imported tables. How make to load only new tables after old were loaded already?

Hi @Analitika ,
I would suggest to upload these xml files in sharepoint and use direct connection /direct query .

But it is time consuming while parsing xml file into tables. It is not faster.

I inserted file in sharepoint. Now I am trying to get data from sharepoint. I provide sharepoint link but error says url invalid.
