Replacing existing data source file to one drive location

Hi Experts,

 

I have created a power bi report with excel/csv  data linked from my onedrive location. I intend to share the power bi report with others however I want to keep the underlying files on existing onedrive location.

 

Is it possible, If others refresh the query from their system then the report should be able to fetch the data from my one drive locations.

 

If yes, then what could be the process of linking the file, as i believe there are credential login requirement for users to access file on my one drive location. 

 

Thanks

@anwarbi , Based on what I got. You need to give them access to the onedrive location.

 

In case of power bi-service refresh. The refresh login or workspace admins should have access to one drive location
