account used to develop vs account used to refresh data source
I have a Power BI workbook that I have created in Desktop. It sources from a SQL Server database. I can access this database with a particular account / login. My Azure tenant admin has created a data source for this database in our gateway (within the Power BI service), and I have access to this gateway. The admin used a service account in creating this data source (i.e., not his or my particular login). How does this work when I go to refresh the dataset that this workbook creates when I publish it to the service? That is, when I schedule a refresh on the dataset, will it dial into the SQL Server database using the service account provided in the data source definition (virtually dropping my login account when I first published the workbook to the service)?
