SharePoint List from private channel
Hi everyone,
I'm trying to import a SharePoint List from a private channel (I have access) without ny success. Although I can connect to the API (SharePoint Online List connector), the List does not apper in the navigator. Could it be connected to the fact that the channel is private?
I'm using following connection string: https://companyname.sharepoint.com/
Thanks ahead!
Yes, the site needs to be public in order for the connectors to work. Try creating a copy of that Sharepoint list in an existing public Sharepoint you have access or alternatively, create a new public Sharepoint and don't share it with anyone, create the list there and use it as your source.

Thanks for the reply! I have actually found a workaround over the functionality "export to Power BI". It will create a report with connection to the list, even if it is in a private group.
Cheers!
