Help updating a report automatically

how do i make my power BI report and visuals update automatically rather than creating a new report every week/month and copying over the data?

 

I am using an excel docuemnt as a base for the report and keeping the format the same in regard to heading columns etc each week

    cmckernan93 as per my understanding from your previous reply you want to know how to update power bi automatically with same figures...When you are  working with excel you can upload the excel either in Sharepoint or in Onedrive which will enable to schedule refresh in power bi service without gateway
