SharePoint recent files not showing up

Hi dandurocher ,
When you opened it in Power BI Desktop, please go to Data source settings and check or edit your permission of SharePoint to make sure it's correct and up to date.

Wow, thank you; I feel like a rookie. That was indeed the problem. Clearing permissions did the trick. What threw me off was that I could still see files up to a week ago, just not recently modified files.
Thanks for responding so quickly.

I'm experiencing a similar issue when using power query within excel to connect to sharepoint. My connection to sharepoint exists but I just can't see recently created folders. I was reeeeaaaally hoping the same solution would work here but editing permissions in data source settings hasn't helped. I've also tried clearing the cache within excel and that didn't help either. Anyone got any bright ideas?
To be clear my permissions in sharepoint are unchanged and I can access the files fine in Sharepoint.

Hi , why dont you just copy the exact path of the file you need and open it directly?

update: having tried these steps twice already I tried again and this time rather than simply editing the navigation step, copied out all steps from the advanced editor and redid the navigation in the main UI through clicking through each table link. This seemed to work to my surprise. Maybe there was something that was no longer right in the code in my steps or maybe deleting the cache helped.
