From excel to Power BI to Power Query: how can I make it easier for a user to update a query

I have a power BI mixing several excel files in a folder.

I then copied the query in the "queries and connection" of excel proving the data of the query in BPI.

New files arrive periodically, the old version are suppressed and it is replaced by the new file, with new data. The user presses "refresh" in excel and he has a refreshed query.

Is this making sense? Is there a way to do it more simply and better for a user wanting to get up to date data in the excel?

Following the comments and answer I am adding some information here:

I have two excel files which I am merging in power BI and over which I am operating a variety of additional operations:

I do that in the following power BI file:

I go into queries and I copy the resulting merged query, looking for merged rabbits: 在此处输入图像描述

I then copy the query in Excel in the "Queries and connections" pannel: 在此处输入图像描述

My question is thus: how could I enable the end result, my excel to refresh with the last data, without having to redo this cumbersome operation? If my two source files are updated, I would like my user to simply press refresh without having to do the whole process again.

If I got it right, you have a query in excel (in the "Data"→"Queries & Connection" section). If this is the case, you can choose to update the data on fixed interval or on file opening.

open "Queries & Connection", right click the query and choose "properties", from there, in the "usage" tab, you can set it to auto-refresh on file open.
