Attempt to "Get data: from OneDrive - files do not appear

[ScottFerguson]

After importing 2 files to a workspace in Power BI from OneDrive for Business, the full OneDrive file explorer does not appear - only the two files that were previously imported.

How do I add additional files from OneDrive to the workspace?

Hi @ScottFerguson,

In power BI service, if you want to get file located in OneDrive, please click GetDate->Files->OneDrive for business, then you can sign in your onedrive, you will get the files list in onedrive as follows, you can connect any file you want. I test using personal business. It's same when you get date from onedrive for business.



Please feel free to ask if you have any probem.

Aneglia,

Thanks for your response. I am able to move files in OneDrive to a workspace without issue. Have you been able to modify a PBIX file saved to a OneDrive space and see the reports in service update within an hour? For example, adding a new visual?

If so, what does that workflow look like and is it what you expected?

Thanks,

Scott

Hi @ScottFerguson,

Yes, I tested it before. Do you turn on the button (highlighted in red line) shown as the following screenshot below?

Angelia,

I attempted to add another OneDrive model but the folders would not appear in the workspace. I deleted all files and tried again - now no files appear in the OneDrive workspace in Power BI. The folders are all available in OneDrive - they simply do not appear for me to select files in the PBI workspace. Thoughts?

Hi @ScottFerguson,

Before, you can get files stored in Onedrive, while no files appear now? The accounts are same? It's weird.
