Hi Fatimah ,

For import type connection, when you refresh the report:

1. Power BI Desktop will get the latestd data from datasource with Power Query Connector

2. then will apply the steps in Power Query Pane that you do

4. when all the steps execute completely, the data will load into Power BI, and all the report visual will refresh

    Thank you for  your answer. 

    I have one question regarding point number 2. are the steps in power query are being applied one by one or are thay being applies in parallel?

      it could be either. It depends on the steps and the connector that you are using. It will do as much in parallel as it can.
