Hi Anonymous ,
In fact, that is a sample scenario about how to get the root path of the shared file. (it does not mean to move your file to onedrive)
If you use excel connector with file URL(root path of excel file that stored in google sheet), it can be refresh automatic after you update its credentials.Google spreadsheet integration

Hi Anonymous ,
I'd like to suggest you use 'File.Contents' to get data from the root path of shared network file link:
Use OneDrive for Business links in Power BI Desktop
For analysis word document in power bi, you can take a look t following links:
Extract tables from word document
Notice: file connector does not work for URL which contains redirection or other authorizations.
