Update of report via on-premises gateway

[Kristofferaabo]

Hi

We have newly devopeled a tracking report in powerbi with is linked to our data lake in the company. One of the reasonas for doing this was to allow us to have access to this frequently updated data.

I have learned that to be able to update my report which is published, I needed to install a gateway.

This is done a works nicely, but I need to have my computer online to do it???

Is there any way I can update my report, without being online? for instance over night, or during the weekend, holiday periods?

Thanks

Kristoffer

@Kristofferaabo,

Do you connect to Azure data lake store in the Power BI report? If so, Azure data lake is a cloud data source, it doesn't require gateway when refreshing such dataset in Power BI Service.

After you enter credential for Azure data lake in Power BI Service following the guide in this similar blog, you are able to set schedule refresh for the dataset.
