PowerBI Service - Direct OneDrive connection link, not import. Service Changes?

Thank you for your reply, it is much appreciated.

Import and link has always been different to my knowledge? You used to get two options to pick from when connecting to OneDrive for business as a data source option. 

"the default data refresh mode is OneDrive Refresh." It brings up the OneDrive "my files screen" and when selecting the file, it states import only.  After import, you get the OneDrive refresh toggle in the dataset properties, but it just doesn't update even when edited as suggested. Not every hour, not even the manual refresh which you can now do, which I don't believe was possible before as it was supposed to auto update every hour. 

Regardless of my current issue, for absolute clarification...

I should be able to select a file directly from my OneDrive (which is my default list view after selecting get data from excel)

The file will import with what it has at the time, but will also refresh every hour but only if the file has been modified?

Thanks again for your input!
