Excel linked to PBI

‎05-25-2017 02:53 AM

Urgently need some advice. I have a .pbix file which is linked to an excel file on my system. I want to transfer the .pbix file and the excel sheet to my colleagues system so that he can make changes to the excel file and subsequently "Refresh" the .pbix file to update data in the charts. How can I do this so that my colleague has access to the excel file linked to PBI. Thanks in advance.

He can just go in and update the Source path to where the Excel file exists on his system.
