Data sources don't support refresh

Hi, 

I wanted to know if someone has a way to refresh a dataset in PBI Service using the File.Contents.

I'm actually using this solution https://blog.crossjoin.co.uk/2016/08/23/web-contents-m-functions-and-dataset-refresh-errors-in-power... which is very effective but i don't see any way to apply it to File.Contents

If there is no way to do so, when will this function be supported by PBI Service ? 

And same question for Python.Execute, which has a huge potential bur is of no use in Service.

Thanks for your help,

Regards
