    vanessafvg,

    This is a know issue which has been reported internally: CRI 93388496. This issue will be fixed in February 2019 Power BI Desktop release.

    Currently, you can put all these files in local folder and then connect to the Folder in Power BI Desktop  to work around this issue.

        vanessafvg,

        The issue is reported internally and only engineers are able to track the issue and get all the information. Currently, it is not possible to combine files after connecting to Azure data lake.

        As a work around, you can combine the files into a single file, then upload it to Azure data lake and connect to the file in Power BI Desktop.
