    Hi Anonymous 

    Power BI Service doesn't auto-update reports from SharePoint/OneDrive changes, but you have options:

    1. Scheduled Data Refresh: Automatically refreshes the dataset, not report visuals/structure.
    2. OneDrive Integration: Save the PBIX file on OneDrive/SharePoint, and Power BI can detect changes (updates need manual refresh in the Service).
    3. Automation: Use Power Automate or Power BI REST API to auto-republish PBIX files after updates.

    For full automation, you'd need to set up Power Automate or REST API workflows. Let me know if you need help!
