Difficulty connecting to data

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Dewald18

Hello

 

I am trying to connect power apps to a data source. I have uploaded my data (excel file) to OneDrive for business and SharePoint, but when I search for the file it does not show there. I don't know if it is something to do with my license? I am now using Google Sheets as a data source, but I will prefer working from Excel. Please see the attached photo.

 

Can you please assist me with this?

Thank you!

    Does your Excel file that is stored in OneDrive for Business have a table defined in it?  The only files you will see in the connector are the ones you have access to stored in OneDrive for Business that have a table.
