Hi Folks,
I have file to import in the Power BI which gets updated everyday ,and file name changes with date string on it.I want to import the file of last date on it.
For example today (02/10/2018)I have a file to import is
report_20180209.csv
next date(02/11/2018) i want the imported file to be
report_20180210.csv
I am trying to find out the proper way create parameter based on date
Thanks for your help
Hi @rgupta20,
Could you please mark the proper answer as solution?
Best Regards!

One option might be to create a query based on data imported from folder: Get Data -> Folder. Then you make sure that you have in this folder the most recent file you need to import. Then it is not important what is the name of the file. Power Bi will import just the file you have in this folder.
