    I've been following your channel for some time now and I find the content you show very valuable and enhance my private toolbox in the use of PQ. I would like to ask your advice on a situation I have encountered, namely I am using SP and within Sites A, which I have access to, I want to make text files available for reading to another person. When I use SharePoint.Contens the other person can't refresh the request, he gets a message about having to log into Sites A, where he won't get access in full, of course. On the other hand, when I change the method to SharePoint.Files without editing permissions the same query this person can refresh it, he gets the contents of the text file in response. Have you encountered such a 'problem'? Could you suggest how I can solve this problem?

    Taking Power Query to the next level. Edit (a day later): A dashboard I published on the PowerBi service failed to update. I verified that one of these random columns (Column14) is missing in 3 tables (it has probably been filled in as there are changes in the Excel tables. I prefer to get data from tables to prevent this, but the information owner doesn't want to have tables. With this video, the problem is dynamically solved. Thank you again for the tips here and on LinkedIn
