The supplied URL must be a valid 'http:' or 'https:' URL

hi all,

 

in my PBIX i created a source for extracting data from Sharepoint folder but instead of using a weblink (https://XXXX1-my.sharepoint.com/personal/XXXX/_layouts/15/onedrive.aspx ) i use a server address which looks like: \\Srv0650\c$\Users\XXXX\OneDrive for Business\CC\OW but i get the error message DataFormat.Error the supplied URL must be a valid hhtp or https  URL. Tried the web connection instead as well but still no luck.

Any ideas what causes this issue and how to solve it.

thanks

m
