Hi @NadaBen

 

In the Query Editor you can click on the Source cog in the Applied Steps to bring up a window where you can probably change this

Hi @NadaBen

 

This is the second way to change file path.

Go to file ->choose options and settings->go to data sources setting ->chabge source of your file.2017-05-29_15h21_52.png

Hi, I'm hoping soneone can help me on a simular matter to the above.

 

I have mistakenly built a BI Report with my dataset as an 'exel file' however the file is saved in my sharepoint therefore I need to change the data set type to 'web' (I have the path to this its only the type I need help with).

 

When I follow the two options above to change the data set it only give me a few options to 'Open file as'....

Does anyone know if any of these options works like 'web' with a sharepoint file location?

 

Many thanks

Katie
