This question may be asked many times but my business use case bit different.
I have sharepoint folders like this.

I want to combine files per company from each month folder and merge them.
Once all data will be merged then I need to do create dashboard.
Dashboard creation is fine which I can do after data preparation. Here are the challenges which I am facing.
- Need to do auto refresh the file
- Each month passing data merge & refresh should happen automatically
- There are multiple files for each company in each month which make appropriate data-set for analysis.
Any approach or implementation done in past based on scansion will be highly appreciated.
