Azure Blob Storage from POWER BI Service

Hi I am trying to undestand the following.

We have files in Azure Data Lake under the BLOB Storage.

We have created Datasets from POWER BI Desktop using these files and published it to the service.

 

Now is there a driver which i can install on the gateway machine so that this dataset can be refreshed online when the datafile is updated in the blob storage with more data. Read something about ABFS driver but not able to undersand it clearly.

Also this POST says that we should be able to  refresh from the service.
