Are you able to connect Power BI to an online excel document in OneDrive?

‎11-23-2020 04:35 AM

I've tried searching for an answer but have had no luck. Are you able to connect Power BI to an online excel document in OneDrive so that multiple people can make updates to the excel sheet in teams and have that flow into a Power BI dashboard?

Yes, if the people have modify privileges on the file, you can use this approach to connect Power BI to that file to get the data.

Use OneDrive for Business links in Power BI Desktop - Power BI | Microsoft Docs
