Hi Pappy54 ,

 

Currently, in Power Query Online, the Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 connector only supports paths with container, and not subfolder or file. For example, https://<accountname>.dfs.core.windows.net/<container> will work, while https://<accountname>.dfs.core.windows.net/<container>/<filename> will fail.

 

And I find some articles, please see if they are helpful:

Cannot create a dataflow from CDM folders in ADLS Gen2 

Unable to read CDM default.manifest.cdm.json 

The Common Data Model in Azure Data Lake Storage – Power BI Dataflows 

 

 

If the problem is still not resolved, please provide detailed error information or the expected result you expect. Let me know immediately, looking forward to your reply.

Best Regards,
Winniz
