Hi John

I enjoy your articles as well as your session on Ecsp18 🙂

Maybe you have som hints on the following issue:

I am a SharePoint Guy with a task for our internal Power BI Guy.

I have about 200 SPOnline sites(webs) with a set of documents on each site. I need a consolidated report on the documents status from all sites. The document libary columns are simple no lookup columns etc.

My power BI guys claims he is facing performance issues/ timeouts when retrieving data from more than a few webs.

Any hints/best practices to pursuit on this topic ?

/ Michael
