Connecting to a folder using dataflows

Thanks for the reply from ibarrau , please allow me to provide another insight:

Hi Khalidshurafa ,

Whether a gateway is required depends on the location of the data source. Based on your description, for cloud services like OneDrive for Work or School, this is not required and the Power BI service can refresh the cloud service directly.

For dataflow connecting to folder data sources, you can use the Power query connector.

For more details, you can refer to below document:
