Unable to get data from sharepoint folder
This Issue was caused my me orginally creating the model on desktop and then uploading it to power bi online which for some reason prevented it from importing any new data at all. kept getting the same error if i tried to link it to a one drive file and would give the error when i would upload an excel file to it
The issue was fixed by me just recreating the model on power bi as that allow me to import data from any source
Thanks for the help
Hi noahrivett,
Are you connecting to SharePoint Online, or an on prem installation of SharePoint?
If you're connecting to SPO, a gateway isn't needed and will only complicate things.
Are you able to share with us the settings of the connection itself? In the rop right, click onthe settings gear and click "Manage connections and gateways" and from there you should be able to find it.

I still get the error irrelivent of whether the tick box for allow this connection to be utilized .... is ticked or not
I literally could never choose to use a gateway at all when trying to connect
when i would try to make a new connection the only option given for data gateway was (none)
