Hello,
I can connect to sharepoint via metadata connector to get "filelist"
But what to do in case i have files in different subfolders (some wildcard)?
/sites/05_BUSINESSPLANNING/Shared Documents/06_Price List/03_SAS'
Contains subfolders: "2021", "2022", "2023" and every subfolder contains another subfolder related to Quarters.
At the end I have similar tables with matching columns within 5 sheets i every excel file.
Is there any option to do this LOAD ?

The best way is having two connections. One using the Metadata connector to retrieve the list of all files and the second using the sharepoint connector to load the data itself
I have two connectors. But the issue is probably here metadata connector see no file within this subfolder only another subfolders.
Load script fails at the beggining.
This metod work well with multiple files within same subfolder but i cannot fix it for multiple subfolders.

Did you use the ListFolders and then ListFiles for eah folder?
I created listfolders connector right now. But i don understand how do i use it both at once.
My sample file has this path:
Can u provide some sample modification of this link with use listfolders and list files ?
with only listfiles I created this: " let vfilename =replace(Peek('ListFiles.ServerRelativeUrl','$(i)','List_of_SASPRICELIST_FILES'),'/sites/05_BUSINESSPLANNING/','');"
