How to refresh Python API in PBI online?

Hi there, 

I have a python code that gets sales data through a apple app store via an API connection. 
This code was put into the get data> python scipt method and outputs a query table. All authentication is within the code. 
To refresh, all i do is refresh the table. This works fine on my desktop. 

However, I need this to refresh scheduled once a day, but online it doesnt allow it saying my dataset does not support refresh.  
Is there something extra I have to do refreshing Python Scripts with rest API?

Thanks!

You need to install , run and configure a Personal Gateway.  That gateway needs to be on when your schedule is active.
