New XLSX Files/Data located in sharepoint, not showing up in queries and reports when refreshed.

Hello All,

I was running into an issue where new Excel files stored in Sharepoint folders aren't being updated and brought into queries, reports and dashboards, but existing files (at the time the queries were originally made) are being updated as those files are being updated.

How can i have new files automatically discovered in Sharepoint as they are added and automatically added to my queries and reports in Power BI?

Actually the problem is solved.  They were being scanned but there were some errors present in the files so they were getting filtered out from having the data being shown

Hi @mikekolba

You may import the data from the sharepoint folder. Below are the article and post about this way for your reference.
