Apply external stimulus to dashboard

Hi,

 

We created a dashboard in power bi desktop version, and now we are trying to apply filters on dashboard using external python code, not inside power bi. Basically what we want is to change the data outside Power Bi, but to be reflected in power bi graphs.  

Is there a way to make changes in data using external stimulus and be reflected in power bi dashboard?

 

Many thanks,

Alina

You can either use full Power BI Embedded or you can use Report URL filters.

 

Filter a report using query string parameters in the URL - Power BI | Microsoft Docs
