Why getting data from Sharepoint Folder gives an error in PBI?

Hello everyone,

It should be simple to get data from Sharepoint in PBI however sometimes I don't understand I am getting error.

This is the steps I followed:

1. Get data

2. Online Services

3. Sharepoint folder

4. Past the URL from file location in Sharepoint

I got the error. What is so different that I missed?

Thanks for your help.

I found the solution to it finally. I don't know why but I have to connect as web, not sharepoint folder.

If I connect as a web connector, then it works without error. Still don't know why the sharepoint folder gives error.

Anyway, thanks for trying to help.
