Hi all,

If I create the report in power BI desktop that consumes data from an on-premises tabular data from a table in Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS). After publishing the report to the power BI service, i need to access the current data from that table when I open the report in Power BI service. For that which below way is possible,

 

a. Live connection

b. Directquery mode

 

Thanks,

-Arul
