Hi @32210310 ,
You need open Excel file from SharePoint Online/OneDrive for Business in Excel Desktop App to get the link path first.Then use 'Web' connector to access the file path in PowerBI Desktop.
Need to notice that when you paste the file path into the URL field, you must delete ‘?web=1’ from the end of the file path.
You can also use a SharePoint folder as a source.
Please see these tutorials for more information.
