Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @nirrobi,
Firstly, create UnzipContents function in Power BI Desktop following the instructions in this blog.
Secondly, choose "New Source -> Blank Query", open the advanced editor and paste the following code, please replace the path to your own path.
let path = "Path\Zipfolder", Source = Folder.Files(path), #"Filtered Rows to only .zip" = Table.SelectRows(Source, each ([Extension] = ".zip")), #"Removed Other Columns" = Table.SelectColumns(#"Filtered Rows to only .zip",{"Content"}), #"Added Custom UnzipContents" = Table.AddColumn(#"Removed Other Columns", "Custom", each UnzipContents([Content])) in #"Added Custom UnzipContents"
Thanks,
Lydia Zhang
