    Just a heads up: 

     

    I submitted a ticket to the Microsoft POWERBI team, and the kindly fixed the issue. 

    Now, when trying to connect to a specific Sahre Point subgroup, you'll be asked to submit the group's URL address, avoiding the "by default" pointing to the top-level Sharepoint site. 

    Kudos to the Power BI DEV Team... Awesome team!

This isn't a fix as it only works on the Browser version.  Myself and others are wanting to link to data within a subsite from the Power BI Desktop application.

Did anything changed here? I'm trying to get to files in subfolder of our SharePoint, but I get error:

 

DataSource.Error: Microsoft.Mashup.Engine1.Library.Resources.HttpResource: Request failed: 
OData Version: 3 and 4, Error: The remote server returned an error: (404) Not Found. (Not Found)
OData Version: 4, Error: The remote server returned an error: (404) Not Found. (Not Found)
OData Version: 3, Error: The remote server returned an error: (404) Not Found. (Not Found)

it allows me access to root folder of our SharePoint (https://ourcompany.sharepoint.com/sites/myteam), but not to subfolder where my data files sit (https://ourcompany.sharepoint.com/sites/myteam/Shared%20Documents/My%20Data%20Files)

 

Why so?
