Do you connect to SharePoint online files such as csv or Excel in Power BI Desktop? And do you want to get updated data in Power BI report when you change data in the file data source within one hour? If so, you would need to directly connect to the SharePoint online file in Power BI Service using Get Data->Files->SharePoint option. Then create report in Power BI Service and configure OneDrive Refresh for the dataset.

Lydia

I have a similar question but my data source is a sharepoint list. Is it possible to set up an automatic refresh? I would like to be able to update data in the list then see the results in the Power BI web app on the SharePoint site.

Thanks!
