Thank you for the answer.
Why does the step-by-step guide picture show xlsx. as a compatible format for upload? Is that picture from an older version of Power BI Service?
I do not have access to a Windows computer for this project. Is there a way to emulate Windows on Mac? Or to emulate a Windows desktop?
