Path name for excel files

‎01-15-2021 09:23 AM

I recently extracted an inventory of excel files stored in a shared drive network, using powerbi get data > from folder function and extended the attributes column.

it contains the path, file name, extension, size etc... for some .xlsm macro files we need to find out if they are connected to another spreadsheets, do you know how I can extract this with PowerBI or if there is another solution out there to help with this?

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

As far as I learned, sorry for that I don't think there is a way.

 

Best Regards,

Yuna
