Hi, I have imported data from a folder with several excel files. I added one and changed something in another, and neither of these changes appears when I refresh data in powerbi desktop. Howerver, when I refresh data, it says that the data was correctly loaded.
Any ideas??
Thanks a lot!
Ana
Solved! Go to Solution.
@AFra once you refresh the dataset, you have to refresh the report page as well otherwise you will not see the changes.
I would ❤ Kudos if my solution helped. 👉 If you can spend time posting the question, you can also make efforts to give Kudos whoever helped to solve your problem. It is a token of appreciation!

Hi, @AFra
Based on my test, it works properly after the refresh when I add an excel file or modify an excel file. The data is updated. Could you show us which steps have you taken when using a floder connector? For further information, I'd like to suggest you refer to Combine files in Power BI Desktop .
Best Regards
Allan
