Hey msksenthil ,
instead of using the Excel.Workbook command use the Folder.Files() connection. If your files are located on an on-premises network drive you have to be aware that you need an on-premises gateway.
I recommend to move the files into a SharePoint folder (assuming that that SharePoint online is used in your organization)
Hopefully, this helps to tackle your challenge.
Regards,
Tom
