    Hi Greg_Deckler 

     

    I have now the query`s copy and paste in a new file and that works.

    No errors and the data is refreshed succesful.

    Strange but it works.

Frixel Looks like a Folder query. Can you take a screen shot of your Queries pane in Power BI Editor. When you create a Folder query it creates a very specific set of folders and queries that are all interconnected. I am wondering if something got deleted or renamed?

I have a similar error. I have connected to a sharepoint folder that has sub folders with the same excel file that is updated month by month. I just deleted 3 folders with their excel files and when I try to update I get a message of "The folder was not found", why do I have this error? Is BI only supposed to read current folders?
