I am looking for someone to help me with a Python script to be able to load some folder data into a PowerBi dashboard, which gives me a table of the 'Last Modified' date/time.
So when I click 'Get Data' > 'From folder', I have an excel file which I have in this folder where the date and time of the 'last modified' date of a file is kept. This will be used to add a LAST REFRESHED 'card' to the dashboard so users know when it was last refreshed.
Can someone guide me how to do this using Python. For information - the dashboard is saved in a SharePoint. So the folder path currently looks like this: https://companyX.sharepoint.com/sites/Folder/Shared%20Documents/General/ExcelSpreadsheet.xlsx
Hello @Anonymous
question: Why are you not using the simple build-in function Folder.Files?
