Can I connect to Power BI dataflows/SharePoint files using Generic ID?

Hi Everyone, Is it possible to get data from Power BI dataflows and SharePoint (list/folder), and schedule a refresh using a generic ID instead of our own user ID? Thank you for your help!

amitchandak thanks for sharing the links, but I think it is only for the SharePoint server(?) and not for SharePoint Online. Thank you!
