Cannot refresh in PBI service - "Query contains unsupported function. Function name: Folder.Files"

$

Hi everyone, first time posting here. So, here's my issue.

 

I want to schedule a refresh in PBI service but when I try I get this error:

folder files.png

 

I have some rookie-level transformations for getting the most recent document and with that I also use parameters for the source files' path, I do this for TXT and XLSX files. I also use parameters for DB connection strings.

 

Is there any solution for this? Is the problem due to using "Folder.Files" to load the data? Are Parameters the issue? Maybe both? If so, should I just avoid parameters completely for this? Another thing: I'm also using a query to load some user-defined data (txt) into the model, like Period to load (i.e 201906) and I use that to identify the data that I must load into the model among the jungle of directories the user has. And I really need this one...

 

Sorry for dragging this a bit but I don't want to miss any details. So, is there a solution for this "parameterized load paths"/"Folder.Files" issue? Or should I just avoid them?

 

Thanks in advance!
