Does anyone know how can I upload a SharePoint List file to a Teams channel and save as an Excel file in Teams using Power Automate, please?
I have a Power BI Desktop model that has an Excel file as its' source data originating from a SharePoint List, with which I would like to create a Power Automate button for users to update the data in the PBI file, as and when they want to.
Currently it is a manual process (that I'm having to do), to Export to Excel, save to my Desktop as (owssvr.iqy), open it and Enable, save as xlsx file with the file name (CIR Portal Data Table.xlsx) in to the
Source Data folder >> .
Then, when a user downloads the PBI in Teams, they Refresh to update the PBI file with the most recent data in SharePoint.
