Unable to Connect POWRBI to Share[pint Site

Hi Folks,

 

I have just recently joined PowerBI, i find it is a very clever application and was hoping if you could help me with a query.

 

I have been trying to connect PowerBI desktop to teams sharepoint site to generate a few stats. There are quite a few subfolders and i do not understand how to get to the folder i need for my analysis.

 

I have followed step by step guide shared on this site to load the data by first loading the share point url but that is as far as i could go.

 

Any help would be really appreciated.

 

Regards

Junaid

@Junaid72,

You can use the SharePoint Folder connector in Power BI Desktop to connect to your source, enter the root site URL in the connector, you will be able to get data from the folders and subfolders.
