    Please show the whole image of the query to get the answer.  You are showing that there are filters on extension on folder path, but the part that selects which file is not shown.  If there is a {0} before the [Content] shown partially, it means it is using the first file in that folder (power query starts counting at 0.

    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    You'd better use 'SharePoint folder' connector.
