Refresh power pivot in PBI

I have a power pivot model from local drive already connected with PBI Desktop to build the chart.

The issue: when I refresh the Power Pivot, Dataset in PBI NOT updated.

Question is: How I can refresh dataset in PBI which is linked to Power Pivot w/o re-upload the file because I have regular change in Power Pivot?

If the answer is use the file from Cloud/sharepoint, How to import Power pivot from sharepoint since When I connect "Import power Query, power pivot..." it will directly link to the Local folder.

 

Can you please help me out of this stuck? thank you a lot for the helps

Hi @ChiVi ,

In addition to uploading files to the cloud (onedrive, sharepoint, etc.), you can also install an on-premises data gateway that works in conjunction with using refresh to keep your data up-to-date.

There is no need to do this manually, as long as the machine where the gateway and data source are installed is always on, it will refresh the data as scheduled.
Refresh Reports AUTOMATICALLY using Scheduled Refresh
