Sharepoint Folder
I would like to target a folder within a Sharepoint Online library similar to the "connect to folder" functionality that exists on the local client. Can anyone tell me if this is possible? I have see...
Hi admiralman,
Based on my test, we have to list all available folders, then select those we need from the list. As mentioned in above link:
Now that we’re in, we’ll be able to see all of the files from all of the folders that we have access to in that specific site. This might be a pretty long list, so let’s do some filtering on the “Folder Path” column and select the folder where your data is being stored so you only get the files from it.
If we direct to a specific folder in URL (https://microsoft.sharepoint.com/xxxx/xxxx/Shared%20Documents/Power%20BI), it will fail to connect and prompt below error.

Hi admiralman
You could possibly create a function for each file and then loop through each file into one dataset?
Sure...there are a lot of ways to attack this programmatically. I could schedule a power shell to connect and consolidate all files onto one. Does no one know how the Sharepoint folder is supposed to work?
