Help with Changing the Data Source!

Hello All,

 

I have created a Report by using the Option "Folder" from Get Data.

Now, I need to transfer this report to another person.

I have emailed the report to that person.

Will it be enough if we just change the Source address in the Edit queries to their own machine's address?

 

Also in the Same report, I have created few visuals using the Microsoft Exchange Online Option. By this way I have joined my Outlook and Power bi. 

Again, does anyone know if just changing the email id of that person in the source address update the report? (We get the same CSV files)

 

Looking forward to your help!
