Updates to the Web connector

[dimazaid]

We are currently working on improving the refresh of cloud based data sources. As part of this, one of the changes we have made recently is that new datasets that leverage import from Web pages will not be automatically configured for refresh in Power BI service, and will require the use of a gateway. Please consider using the Personal Gateway or On-Premises data gateway if you would like to use this capability. We are working on removing this restriction in the future.

Thanks,

The Power BI team

Some datasets works while not others. @dimazaid can I PM you error IDs and other details?

Onedrive dataset update works fine (scheduled refresh, on demand also). I still need to see if there is on-change "push" update from Onedrive to PowerBI service.

Thanks for keeping us informed, dimazaid.

Will you update this topic once updating from online sources without a gateway is working again?

[dimazaid]

You're welcome. Yes, will do!

OK - there is another issue that affects data connectivity to OneDrive / Sharepoint that you are probably running into. That is being addressed at the moment. This is different from the Web page import issue.

Stay tuned.
