Make your Power BI refresh itself—no gateways, no manual uploads. In this step‑by‑step tutorial you’ll learn how to use the SharePoint Folder connector to pull multiple Excel files from SharePoint, combine them in Power Query, and set up automatic scheduled refreshes in the Power BI Service. We’ll cover copying the correct site URL, filtering to the right folder, appending files, cleaning the data model, and validating the process with a live refresh test. Perfect for anyone who wants cloud‑based, always‑current reports and faster business‑intelligence workflows with SharePoint and Power BI.
