What is the best method for managing data to make power BI remain up to date? Should i keep the data in a CSV file and update manually? Should I keep it on sharepoint list? Should I use a differen't method? Pros? Cons?
@jman738 , In case you want on some local machine you need an on-premise gateway to update data. In the case of share point, you do not need that. But you have to update data on sharepoint
Power BI Install On-Premise Gateway and configure it on service: https://youtu.be/lObMRofpbQ8
