    You need to connect a folder, please refer the following steps.

     

    1. Create a folder to put your file.

     

     

    2. Then open Power BI Desktop, select Get date -> folder to connect the folder you create. You need to select Combine and Transform data.

     

     

    3. We need to remove the first column.

     

     

    4. Now it will be updated according to the changes in your data.

    We change the file name and click the refresh,
