    You can connect to an OData source in Power BI desktop, however currently there's no refresh feature for OData in Power BI Embedded. So if you'd like to refresh, the only way would be manually re-fresh the data in Power BI desktop and re-import the new pbix.

     

     The PG team seems working on the refreshing in Power BI embeded, check Support other data sources Direct Query using Gateway on Embedded Power BI.
