OData - update dataset in embedded report

[vedran]

As part of PBI solution  we use Odata feed from MS Dynamics365/CRM, reports that we create is published to Azure Power Bi Workspace and then is embedded to our custom application.

My question is, because Odata I suppose is very similar to DirectQuery mode, can somehow be set direct refreshing, or if not, can we set some scheduler to update our dataset in time intervals?

Thank you.

There's no refresh feature such as gateway for PowerBI.com for Power BI embedded. Either use directquery mode with Azure sql database/data warehouse or refresh the data in powerbi desktop and re-import the pbix.
