@Anonymous,

What error message do you get? Please try to enter the following URL in web connector of Power BI Desktop and check if it is successful.

http://speast.corp.organization.com/sites/ABCD/Shared%20Documents/YourFolder/Yourfilename.xlsx.

If you connect to the SharePoint folder which is shared by others in Power BI Desktop, please check my reply in this similar thread.


Regards,
Lydia
