Hello
Does anyone know if it is possible to use a SharePoint List with Folders in it, as datasource?
I have a SharePoint list with four folders, with List Items in each.
Connecting the List as a datasource returns the four folders, but not the contents.
Tried using the SharePoint Folder connector, but cannot work out what URL to use as the Site URL does not return the List Items from within the folders.
Thanks
Joe
I do not believe folders are supported. Even the SharePoint List connector v2 that is in beta only sees the folder as a text field, not one you can drill down. It may be why the ability to create folders is turned off by default and hidden in the Advanced List settings - not actively supported.
