Good morning
To create my databases I am using some functions and this does not allow me to perform a scheduled update.
If with the function I use an entire directory, it works, but the moment I use a parameter for the function, it does not allow me.
I can't put the entire directory because if not, the modifications I need the function to do are done incorrectly.
Any ideas?
Thank you.
Being combining different Excel from which I need to transpose the imported tables, I can not get it directly from the folder, I need to perform a function.
Is there no way to be able to perform scheduled updates using these functions for loading data from folders?
Thanks a lot
The examples I see are with Web.Contents and I need to use it with File.Contents and it gives me error:
let
Origen = Excel.Workbook(File.Contents("\\Desktop\" ,[RelativePath = Anio]
), null, true)
in Origen
the error that appears to me is:
DataSource.Error: File.Contents: This function does not support the "RelativePath" query option with value ""2022.xlsx"".
Details:
2022.xlsx
Hi @Syndicate_Admin ,
Is that you want to get data from a folder?
Loading Data From Folder - (powerbi.tips)
Or try absolute path.
