    I would like to be able to create an entity by combining multiple flat files (i.e. csv) in a folder located on a local network.

    Folder connector is one of the connectors you can currently use in dataflows by copying and pasting the M query into a blank query.

    I would love to be able to do this. A great time saver, ideally with CSV held in Sharepoint.
