    Dear @Sujan Thapa,

    Good day! Thank you for posting your question in the Microsoft Q&A forum.

    We apologize for any inconvenience you may encounter when using our services/ products. Based on your description, kindly try these following steps: Refresh All & Clear Cache

    • In Excel: Data > Get Data > Data Source Settings > Clear Permissions for the SharePoint source. User's image
    • Then refresh the query. User's image

    Check the Navigation Step

    • In Power Query, look at the step before filtering (#"前のステップ").
    • Confirm if the new folder appears there. If not, the issue is with SharePoint indexing or caching.

    Check SharePoint Sync Delay

    • Sometimes it takes times for new folders/files to appear in the SharePoint API.

    Thank you, Huy-K.

    I have tried permission clear and other settings.
    also, tried below M code still not possible to get last added folder.
