SharePoint.Contents unable to combine current folder and sub folder files
When I navigate to a folder using the navigation step, I am unable to combine files in the content column because sub folders are showing as "table" instead of "binary" unless I drill down to a specific folder that does not have a sub folder. Does anybody know a work around? To convert the table row to a binary so that I can combine all files. I am trying to move away from SharePoint.files as it's cumbersome and increases refresh time.

Filter out the rows where Extension is null.
What made you choose SharePoint.Contents over SharePoint.Files ?
I am trying to consolidate all files in the parent folder and all files in sub folders. So filtering out is not what I want.
I heard .content speeds up consolidation, and I want to try it out since .files is taking 30 ish mins to refresh my large dataset atm.
.Contents does not give you the full inventory - you need to do the navigation yourself.
.Files usually works. What types of files are you processing?
