Could you please help advise how to fix it.

Thank you in advance.

are you able to map the path to a drive assignment?

Hi @pjaiphak
I have experienced this. what I did is to put another “//” in the path

https://websbbb.com//sites//Mysite//Shared%20Documents//TT//Product%20Movement%20Plan//Product%20Movement%202019.xlsx?web=1%201
