OneDrive file source - where to see path of file

For source files on OneDrive (that benefit from the hourly refresh) - be it a data source eg CVS or a PBIX with dataset & report, is there a way to see the path and filename from within the Service?

 

A scenario is where it may be failing or am needing to get to the file.  I've had a brief look at PowerShell and the API, wasn't able to see anything that would show this.

Hi @Cymbolz ,

 

Based on my research, the path of excel/csv/pbix file in OneDrive cannot be found in Power BI Service, but the filename is usually the name of dataset. The API of get dataset/datesources cannot return of the dataset connected with OneDrive.
