Azure Blob Storage Refresh Failed
- 9 years ago
I figured it out, for anyone else who is wondering how to make BI look at a specific folder/Blob/etc.
Make sure when point BI towards the folder, NOT the files inside of it. For local folders this will happen automatically, not so much for Azure Blob. Had to modify the Query in desktop so it did so.

Hi,I believe I have the same problem. I had 5 files in my blob when I first imported the blob storage folder. Now I need to delete 4 of these, as they are test files. The problem is that PBI fails to refresh when it does not find these 4 deleted files.
My intention is to have a varying number of files (with different file names) in the blob storage folder in the future, so it is of vital importance that I get PBI to refresh no matter what csv:s it finds in the blob.
Can you please advise what your exact steps were to modify the query in desktop so PBI opens the folder?
Thank you!
