Hi Guys

Please take a look at the picture below that should describe my situation.

How do I go about adjusting my below Power Query Navigation expression that takes into account that the "Sheet Name" (i.e. Navigation expression) is variable each time the below excel report data and saved from our system, even though the "File Name" (i.e. Source expression) remains constant each time I save the excel report data.



Power Query:
let

Source = Excel.Workbook(Web.Contents("https://eznlb-my.sharepoint.com/personal/m_pinto_enzazaden_com/Documents/(Shared%20by%20Me)/Apps/(Enza%20Data%20Sources)/Cubes/[COLOR=rgb(44, 130, 201)][B]ABS%20Order%20Lines%20Batches.xlsx[/B][/COLOR]"), null, true),



#"ABS Customers_Sheet" = Source{[Item="[COLOR=rgb(184, 49, 47)][B]ExportData_MICHAELP_214[/B][/COLOR]",Kind="Sheet"]}[Data],

I'm not sure this can help your problem, but try starting over, and when the Navigator comes up for you to select the worksheet, select the "Folder" instead:

That will leave you with a look into the entire structure of the file like this:

Hopefully you can filter out unneeded rows and then select the row with the sheet needed. If you're lucky the sheet you need might always be in the same row in which case you can just delete the other columns, and double click the Table which will make the Navigation step reference the row index {#} of the table rather than its name.

I obviously couldn't access the file in question, so it's hard to determine what's going on, but that might work for you.
