Refreshing data that was imported from a Excel file

I have created a data model in Excel & imported that into PBI. I have made some adjustments to the source Data Model in the Excel file & hit refresh but I can't see those adjustments coming through

 

Is there a standard way to refresh for a Imported data file?

 

Thanks

Sometimes that happens to me. For me, it has something to do with the file syncing to the document library/Onedrive online where PQ is trying to pull it from. If I go in and open the document in the web app and everything syncs, I will make sure to save it and then it will make the changes in Power Query.

 

If you're importing it from a file on your hard drive, maybe consider connecting to the online location instead.

 

Good luck.
