    Hi there

    Currently Excel workbooks cannot be interacted with in the Power BI Service.

    2) Unfortunately as it stands today there is no way to automatically refresh the Excel workbook in the Power BI Service. You could maybe use PowerOn to do this for you?

    3) With the new workspace versions you have to use the ODC connection from the report (clicking Analyze in Excel in the Power BI Service) to connect to the data.
