Why AD never finished loading?

I am trying to consume the group table in Active Directory, but it takes long time:

(it loads for hours, never finishing...)

 

 

Is there a way around this? I am showing in PowerBI,  folder + AD groups  (I want to enable a drill down on 'groups', to see members of the group).

 

Is there a way where, I can load only data that I need?

Hi @Anonymous ,

You could test to get   list of AD Groups and their members  by using PowerQuery,refer:
