Managing data refresh from multiple files located on Sharepoint
Hi, KGBOR
If the file is stored on OneDrive, or SharePoint Online, and the same file is overwritten each day, as opposed to a new file with a different name being created each day, you can connect to that file in Power BI. Your dataset that connects to the file will be synchronized soon after the file on OneDrive, or SharePoint Online, is updated. Any visualizations based on the dataset are automatically updated too.
Daily exported files with different names like you described may not be refreshed automatically.
Please refer to the following links.

Thank you! If I combine multiple files for the initial dataset and new files are being added to the same location, can PowerBI include those new files as well into the dataset?
