How to connect Azure blob to Power BI

Connect data from Azure blob to Power BI is not that easy.  It takes some steps to get the real data there.

I will illustrate it with some pics:

1. Open a Power BI desktop, click get data=>MS Azure Blob Storage



2. It will lead you to a prompt, then put your storage name there:

3. click the storage you want to load, then click edit:


4. filter the table you want to load by clicking the drop-down:


5. left click the double-arrow besides the "Content":

5. Then the content of your data will show, click  "Close & Apply"  on the left upper corner:

6. You will go back to Power BI, click the grid icon,and your data will show. And then, you can analyze the data. 


I am using the newest version of Power BI here.
