How do download files from pbi list
I have to design a certain solution with PBI
I have a list of data in a table - in one column there are www/ftp links to files - after filtering I will get some smaller list and I have to have one button that will download this list of files as a ZIP (or one by one but automatically)
What is the best way to go about it?
Hi mdz99 ,
Base on my research, there is no direct method to complete it. You can follow the steps below to get it:
1. Create a Power BI report:
- load the table data in PBI
- Create a visual with filtered file locations
- Export the filtered data from the visualization:Export data from a Power BI visualization - Power BI | Microsoft Learn. The file locations will be storead in a csv file...
2. Download the files by Python: How to Download Files From URLs With Python – Real Python

Consider using Power Automate instead.
