PowerBI support for OneDrive Personal as data source

Hi Ghislain,
Yes. Please use the following link to connect to excel file located at OneDrive for personal from Power BI Desktop.
https://onedrive.live.com/download?resid=AAXXXX&authkey=AAXXXXXXX&em=x&app=Excel
Replace the bold parts with the resid and authkey that are found by right-clicking on the specific file and selecting “Embed”.
Thanks,
Lydia Zhang
This procedure is not working anymore.
Onedrive changed the url from embed code, removing the resid &authkey
Is there any workaround?
Seems that Google drive is easier to share a xlsx to power bi than onedrive!
