How to live sync microsoft exchange online data set?

[Anonymous]

I'm currently creating a powerbi dashboard that gets its data from my outlook account. I'm using power bi desktop to do this.

Once I publish my dashboard, does it automatically sync data from my outlook account using the microsoft exchange online connector?

Should I use power bi service to do this? If so, how?

Hi @Anonymous ,

You can refer the following links to connect to Exchange Online:

Publish Real-Time Microsoft Exchange Data to PowerBI.com

And it will not sync the data from the outlook account automatically, you can refresh the report manually or configure a schedule refresh to get the updated info...

Configure scheduled refresh - Power BI
