    Hi luis-martins ,

    What data source you are connecting to? Web page or other? Do you want to connect the "web page" from your client directly not thourgh mapped network?

    Best Regards

      the data source is Excels files in that cloud "OwnCloud"

      Right now I am connected via Mapped network. But I want to connect PowerBI -> File in OwnCloud.

      Because right now I have PowerBI -> Mapped Network -> File in OwnCloud
