I have started migrating my data sources from Power Bi desktop to data flow. I have a set of data which are stored in sharepoint folder (Excel files, dated for each week). they get imported to desktop model as expected and has been working for a long time.
Any idea for the reason? I have shown the query in both desktop and data flow
I copied the query to Data flow query and it fals when it starts ready the custom Invoke function to read the contents.

Hi @amirghaderi
As far as I understand if you are calling another function you might need Power BI Premium Per User or Premium in order for that to run before invoking this query?
I think I am getting to the reason.
The files have been saved as CSV format in the folder. I saved them as Excel and the function worked as desktop version.
Is there any way to import them as CSV or I should save all files as Excel. It will not be ideal, if this is the only soloution
I am Pro user and company has Premium liecences for all users.
Hi @amirghaderi
I would suggest looking to use a Premium App Workspace and then see if the function then works?
I am working in Premium workspace
