I'm copying a file from sharepoint to ADLS. When I have the source as HTTP->Excel, how can I find proper base url?

I've tried couple of combinations however, I have been getting this error,

Is this because my base url setting seems to be wrong? I did follow the documentation as instructed, https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/data-factory/connector-sharepoint-online-list?tabs=data-factory#copy-file-from-sharepoint-online

    Hi @Pravash ,

    Thank you for posting query in Microsoft Q&A Platform.

    As per the below document which you are following, you should actually create linked service which is "Sharepoint Online List" connector.
    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/data-factory/connector-sharepoint-online-list?tabs=data-factory#copy-file-from-sharepoint-online

    Sharepoint Online List connector will ask to provide Site URL details. Not base URL. Kindly check below screenshots for better idea.

    The SharePoint Online site url, e.g. https://contoso.sharepoint.com/sites/siteName

    Hope this will help. Please let us know if any further queries.
