Power BI source does not reflect the updated file names, when file names are updated in Sharepoint

Hi,

 

I have been pulling csv data from Sharepoint to PowerBI for dashboarding. 

 

Recently, I realise that there is a typo in the csv file. For example, the old file name is CC0_xxx.csv from Sharepoint, but it should be CCO_xxx.csv, I have made the correction, and in the Sharepoint folder there is only CCO_xxx.csv

 

However, when I use "Get data" to pull the the csv files from Sharepoint folder, PowerBI still only pulls the csv files with the name: CC0_xxx.csv, but in the actual Sharepoint folder, it has already been updated to CCO_xxx.csv.

 

I was wondering why the newest csv files are not reflected in PowerBI sharepoint source. I am pretty sure the Sharepoint location is correct.

 

Anyone else had the same problem before?

 

Thanks heaps.

Hi @Hyuna_8000 ,

When we update a file name / upload a new file in a sharepoint location, sometimes it takes some good amout of time to reflect in the Get Data files list. 
I would suggest that you try pulling that file after some time of making changes in the sharepoint location. This has happened wiith me multiple times and got resolved in sometime.

 

Thanks!
