Export published workbook

hi, bpasol

If the excel is stored in Onedrive or sharepoint and then you connect it and uploaded it in power bi, you could edit it.

Hi there

It is my understanding that once uploaded it is read only and cannot be edited via Power BI Service.

That could be the case, but what confuses me is that Edit option. Feels like I'm missing something.
