Hi,
I created a powerbi dashboard ( via Powerbi desktop) by connecting to mysql server using local host. The steps I followed are
i) Imported the sql dump file into mysql server
ii) did lots of cleaning by deleting unncessary tables etc
iii) connected power bi to mysql server
iv) created the dashboard
What I want to know is it possible to connect this file to an online mysql database of word press so that the data is live always?
