Refresh dynamic data source

Hi Guys,

i have table like here:

 

Screenshot_310.png

 

and code to add additional column with table sources is:

= Table.AddColumn(Table1_Table, "Custom", each Table.AddColumn(Table1_Table, "Custom", each if [ConnectorKind] = "Web" then Csv.Document(Web.Contents([Connector]),[Delimiter=",", Encoding=1250, QuoteStyle=QuoteStyle.None]) else Expression.Evaluate([Connector],[PostgreSQL.Database = PostgreSQL.Database])))


And it is nice but the issue is that after publising into power BI service it complains that dataset has dynamic datasource which can not be refreshed which i neeeed so much.

How can i create one table with refreshable tables as one additional column? 
From queries i will just refer to this one table.

Please help,
Jacek

Hi @jaryszek ,

 

To refresh dynamic data sources in Power BI Service, you can use Web. Contents() and Relative Path parameter in it, please refer:
