HI @nuwanhwb , It was a preview feature last year. It would be Generally Available now so you don't need to turn on any settings. Just use the JSON connector and it should work as needed.

Hi Johncolley, 
Thanks for your responce. i used that after installing the new desktop version.
But i need to read below JSON File structure and i need to expand bottom of the nested list.

i used to read all the JSON files in a folder and expand to the end and transform.

Please comment
Thanks

Hi @nuwanhwb ,

After you connect to the JSON file, you could trasform in the Power Query Editor. Here's an article you could refer to
