Hello Power BI Community,
I'm struggling with an idea and wonder if I can find an answer here.
I'm using a python script to fetch a report from a recruitment platform using RestAPI, and it successfully generates a report and adds the data into Power BI Desktop, so I wonder if, when I publish the dashboard online, will it support auto refresh for my data?
Thank you for your help.

Hi there. If you are writing your Python Script inside PowerBi then you will need a Personal Data Gateway in order to keep a VM running the python logic to refresh the Report published at Power Bi Service.
Keep in mind that you can get request from API using Power Bi Web Connector.
I hope that helps,
Happy to help!
