Refresh Excel workbook with PowerPivot

[ForcaTaico]

Hi,

A while ago the Roadmap for PBIRS had a feature with the ability to refresh Excel with PowerPivot. It's not there anymore, so i guess that feature isn't coming anytime soon.

@chrisfin had a blogpost showing how we could use a thrid party tool called PowerUpdate to refresh the Excel workbooks. We prefer not using 3. party tools. He also mentioned that anyone could do this with the REST API.

So my question is:

Is the ability to refresh Excel workbooks with PowerPivot coming natively to PBIRS (anytime soon)?

...Or does anyone have a script which refreshes Excel workbooks on PBIRS that they would like to share with the community.

Regards Taico
