Synchronize Workspace with One Drive (Update One Drive w/PowerBI changes)
Hello everyone,
I'm working with Deployment Pipelines and I tried to remove the development stage, but since it's not possible, I'm using it. However, I have connected my Power BI files with a shared library in OneDrive and I want to know if it's possible to edit and modify the files directly in the Development workspace and ensure that this creates a new version of the paired file in the OneDrive Shared Library.
Thanks
No, editing reports directly in the Power BI Development workspace does not update the file in the OneDrive Shared Library.
To keep OneDrive updated, always edit the PBIX file in OneDrive (using Power BI Desktop), then save and publish it to the workspace. This way, OneDrive stays in sync and version control is maintained.

Hi julsr Power BI doesn’t push changes back to OneDrive — it only pulls from it. So if you edit a report in the workspace, it won’t update the file in OneDrive. To keep them in sync, make changes in the OneDrive file instead. That way, Power BI will automatically pick up the updates.
