Hi powerbidu
You can refresh it without gateway using the following steps.
Step 1 - You need to open the file in your one drive where it is stored. Go to file->info->copy path as below
Step 2 - After getting this path from here, open your pbix file->get data from the above path.
Step 3 - Publish it workspace. Data Source credential and refresh will be enabled.

Thank You.
