Import data from SharePoint List (Excel) attachment

Hi There,

I am writing to request your assistance with a task involving SharePoint and Power Query. I have a SharePoint list called PQattachment that contains various information and attachments, including some Excel files (.xlsx). I would like to import the data from these Excel files into another Excel workbook using Power Query. However, I am not sure how to do this and I would appreciate your guidance.

 

Could you please provide me with a step-by-step process to accomplish this task? If possible, please include screenshots or links to relevant resources. This would help me a lot in completing my work.

Thank you for your time and support.

 

Sincerely,
Sanket

Hi @SanketSk 

 

For how to connect to a SharePoint List with Power Query in Excel, you can refer to How to get data from SharePoint List with Power Query (exceloffthegrid.com)

For how to extract data from attachments in a SharePoint list and combine them into a big table, you can refer to an old thread: Get and Transform Excel files from SharePoint list - Microsoft Power BI Community
