Hello dear gurus,
I have an issue:
I built a set of dashoboards that needed to be refreshed everyday. Users have only PBI desktop in my organization and I don't like to access them to the developer environment that I built dashboards in PBI desktop. Is there a way that without letting them open the dashboards in PBI desktop the dashboards get refreshed every morning and they just see the final report after refresh?
P.s. I don't want to take the responsibiliity of these refreshes everyday!
Hi @Anonymous ,
We can't do that in PowerBI desktop because PowerBI desktop is just a design tool rather than a sharing tool, we cna publish the report to PowerBI service, then share the dashboard to the users, PowerBI Service can use Gateway to refresh data.
Best Regards,
Teige
Hi @TeigeGao ,
When you say Publish to service, it means it goes out of my premises, which is highly restricted by my security team! What is the solution in this situation?
I can't accept PBI with all the efforts that MS is devoting to it is not available for highly secured orgs!
Thanks
