Retrieve data from specific sharepoint folder with Power BI


I am trying to enter a new source, which is data in a folder in a sharepoint site. These are my folders: sharepoint structure

I take these steps:

Select sharepoint folder

My sharepoint site has three (I want to add more later) folders in it's documents. I want to select which folder to look in -> in this case it's test "Test1" folder.

How can I select the folder? The site URL field is prompting me to use the root site URL, but then it retrieves data from all the folders? Sharepoint prompt URL
