Power BI Refresh Error – Shared OneDrive File

[lldailey]

A colleague built a Power BI report connected to an Excel file stored in a shared OneDrive folder. She can refresh the report from her laptop, but when I try on my computer I get the error “The file path cannot be located.”

It seems the report is still tied to her local OneDrive sync path. What’s the best way to set this up so we can both refresh—should we be connecting with the OneDrive/SharePoint web URL instead of the local path, or is there another recommended approach?

Thanks in advance!
