    Hello -

     

    I was tinkering around and remembered that Power BI sometimes has problems with .csv files. The formatting gets all messed up and it works better designating your .csv file as a text file and letting the query dilimit the columns at each occurence of the comma. 

     

    I changed the query to handle the files in the designated folder as text files and the error dropped. Data is successfully refreshing with manual triggers. Have a scheduled trigger in 5 minutes to see if that works, can't see why it wouldn't. 

     

    thanks for reading.
