get data from files on a sharepoint site

Hello,

i have built a powerbi report with some excel files, which are located on my personal OneDrive for Business.

Now i want to make these files also availabla for my team. I thougt about putting these excel files into a sharepoint site and want to connect these files on the sharepoint site with my current PowerBI report.

 

Has anyone experience in getting data from a sharepoint site?

 

Thank you in advance

    sk I haven't used sharepoint data sources but there are number of connectors available for sharepoint data sources.

    Hi sk,

     

    You don't need to open in excel online, you can click on "..." then select "Get a link". Copy the one marked "Restrict link" in the selection list (the others link do not work)

     

    Kind regards,

      i tried this with the restricted link and it does not work. I get the notification that the URL is not valid.
