Connect a Shared Report to a DataFlow?
Hi PatrickMcLeanGL ,
Based on the information you've provided, your ability to synchronize report updates and manipulate the data in your own way depends on whether you have access to the underlying data sources or shared data sets.
You need to request access from the report owner or data owner. Create data flows in your own workspace to import and transform data as needed. Then set up Scheduled data flows to refresh automatically to ensure that your data is up to date. Achieve synchronized updates.
It's worth mentioning that if the data source is a dataflow, you must use the API to set this up. I recommend you read the following link to accomplish your purpose:

If you encounter any problems during setup, you can provide an error message or screenshot of the error you encountered.
