Data Refresh - Problem and Suggestions

I have a number of dashboards that are refreshed daily by replacing files on my network, refreshing through Power BI and Publishing.  While this is not an ideal process, I am begining to investigate better ways for the dashboards to reresh with less manual intervention.

 

In my attempt to establish a refresh schedule, I can't seem to make my way through the authentication with screen below persisting until I hit cancel.

 

I am looking for some instruction on how I can have Power BI refresh the data, even if I need to continue to place the updated file on the network manually.  In other words execute the refresh and publish process automagically.

 

Appreciate any help!
