Connectivity with Excel data

Hi All,

 

I am new in Power BI. I have a basic query regarding connectivity.

 

I receive some excel data from my one  team who opearte from different location for design some Power BI dashboards demo.

 

I prepared the Dashboards connecting with excel data which is stored in my local drive.  Now , I am sending that Dashboard file to them but as data is connected to my local drive, they cant referesh the dashboard.

Can they connect the excel data from there local drive with this or they need to create a new one.

 

regards

Rajneesh
