Point Power BI report to a different SharePoint list
When connecting the report to a SharePoint list, I provided the URL to the site, giving me a list of SharePoint lists to choose from. The Advanced editor code looks like below: Source = Share...
Thank you for the answer TomMartens Instead of parameterizing the List ID, is there a way I can refer to the List by name or provide it as part of the URL? The ID is an 8digit-4igit-4digit-4digit-12digit alphanumeric code. If I parameterize the ID, I still have to find out the ID for the list each time.
The only way I am able to find that ID is to connect to a list and get the ID from the Advanced Editor. Is there a straightforward way to get the List ID?

Hey GopVan ,
not that I know, as the List connector does not support a name property.
You can use Sharepoint to find the ID of the list, I assume that this is more simple than using Power Query .Regards,
