Automate data flow of newest excel file from Sharepoint Folder

Hi, I am currently trying to automate the data flow to pull the most recent excel file from a Sharepoint Folder. These are the steps I have so far: 

 

Step 1.PNGStep 2.PNGCapture.PNG

The automation broke as of the most recent file push. I have corrected all steps besides the last one. I am looking for a custom formula that will import the excel workbook if it contains "Application Catalog" in its name rather than the full file name so it will continue to pull only the most recent file when it refreshes. After it pulls the excel workbook and displays the final results as above, I need to open the Active Applications table as well. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

Sounds like you may try the incremental refresh for always getting the latest data from sharepoint.
