Connect to web data source like a folder?
Not sure if there is a solution. You could just sync the files locally. Oh, yeah, Apache doesn't do that. 😉 Not easily I guess anyway. https://www.liquidweb.com/kb/how-to-sync-two-apache-web-servers/
ImkeF any ideas here?
Thanks, Greg_Deckler and ImkeF however I don't need to sync multiple Apache servers. I have files being stored in one server and I can do a scheduled refresh with Power BI re-reading the data periodically. My challenge is trying to find a way to treat that server directory as if it were a folder on a Windows OS, and have the functionality of a folder connection. That would allow me to get all the files in it, without knowing in advance how many there are, or their exact names. There may not be a way to do it like that.
