Posted on by duvalioo 3

hello i am still fairly new to powerapps and was wondering the following

 

my data sources are excel files which I always place on a specific folder in sharepoint

 

is there any way that powerapp can add and update the sources automatically ? ( it will always be the same exel files with the same table template just different file name and table name )
