@MP_123 Hopefully I can clarify something here. There are two different ways to get your data exposed on the web.

The first is called "Publish to Web" - you cannot use Direct Query or Live Connection with this method, and it is completely unsecure.

The second is Power BI Embedded - and allows you to use Direct Query in the preview as the only method to keep refreshed data. You cannot use Live Connections, and imported data is not refreshed. (This is current state in-preview) It has a different pricing model, and also allows you to authenticate users within the web app.

The second option, is your only option at the moment if you want to use direct query.

Hi @Seth_C_Bauer,

Can i use  "Publish to Web" for dashboard? It seems this is applicable only for Reports not the dashboards.

[MP_123]

no, unfortunately in SSAS cube, live connection, there's no option to 'publish to web'..

that's why seems lke powerbi embedd it's the only option
