Hey, @Oemad987 ,

I have blogs how to get data from SharePoint List or SharePoint Files:

If you want a general rule, use SharePoint.Contents over SharePoint Files (as that is slower).

 

If you go to Get Data, click Blank Query, then paste this:

 

= SharePoint.Contents("https://tenant.sharepoint.com/sites/siteName", [ApiVersion=15])

Fill the tenant and siteName and you'll get your files, then it's simple navigation with clicking.






Any kudos or recognition appreciated. To learn more on the topic, check out my blog and follow me on LinkedIn.

  1. Go to Home → Get Data → SharePoint Folder
  2. Enter the SharePoint site URL
  3. Power BI will list all files in that site
  4. Filter to your file and open it.
