Select specific files from Azure Blob Storage
- 7 years ago
Hi v-danhe-msft,
Thanks for your response.
I think that is quite a limitation for the Blob Storage Connector at the moment.
I finally ended up with a workaround saving the source files I need for my report on Azure Data Lake Storage.
The Power BI Data Lake Storage Store connector fortunately is capable of connecting to a specific file (files) only without importing the entire folder (just paste the complete file url).
Hi awepdn,
Based on my research, I am afraid you could not achieve this feature currently, I suggest you clean your data in query editor firstly then load into your data model.
Or you could submit an idea in ideas forum:https://ideas.powerbi.com/forums/265200-power-bi-ideas
