Helper ISharepoint import not working as expected
I'm trying to import an excel file file from Sharepoint, however, instead of importing the actual excel file, Power Bi imports a list containing names of my excel files in Sharepoint? Any idea why this is happening?
Hi Redraidas1 ,
For such errors, generally speaking, the link to the data source is incorrect. When the correct link is entered, the excel file will be imported normally, as shown in the figure below.
According to the above description, please try to connect with the correct link again. If it still fails, please take a screenshot to show me your specific connection steps, and I will answer for you as soon as possible.
Let me know immediately and looking forward to your reply.
Best Regards,
Henry
