How to Link two pbix files

Hi

I have a pbix file as ABCD.pbix which I have published in my workspace. I wanted to create another pbix file i.e. EGH.pbix where I want to link the tables of ABCD.pbix so as whenever I refresh ABCD.pbix, the visuals in EGH.pbix also gets refreshed

 

When I searched on net, it was advised to link using Power Bi semantic models but when I did that I got error Direct Query isn't available for this dataset

 

Please advise how to link both the tables 

 

Thanks....Yash

Hi @myash2211 -  Can you try with Power BI Dataflows or Shared Datasets works as expected with two pbix files to refreshed, the data in another pbix is also updated. These methods provide flexibility and ensure data consistency across reports.
