Error when using the sharepoint connector.

I have been trying to get an excel that is located in a folder within a team site on sharepoint.

However, when I perform authentication through the Microsoft account, the following error appears.

I am the team administrator and I still haven't found the solution for this error in Portuguese or English. Could you help me?

Hi @raphaelras 

If you want to get excel from sharepoint , you can use Web connector .

a)Sign in SharePoint with your account .And search your site .

b)Right-click the excel you want to use, and select Open in App.

c)In Excel ,select Info and click the Copy link to clipboard to copy the URL.

Hey @raphaelras ,

 

I'm a little confused about your link. A Sharepoint folder should start like:

https://myCompany.sharepoint.com/sites/myTeam/

 

Then make sure to load the base URL like posted above as "Sharepoint Folder". That should usually work.

 

To be honest, I've never seen a link with "teams" after the main domain. Maybe check that again

 

If you need any help please let me know.
If I answered your question I would be happy if you could mark my post as a solution ✔️ and give it a thumbs up 👍
 
Best regards
Denis
 

I already tried to access with "sites" after the main domain and it still doesn't work.
The link with "teams" is used to access, because the sharepoint is the repository of a team created in Microsoft Teams.

 

I will also try the same link with the other 2 Sharepoint connectors (online list and list), again.

 

Edit: I also tried to connect through Power Query online and I succeeded, so I got the code from the advanced editor. But when I apply to Power BI Desktop, I keep returning this error.
