Best free option to host data so multiple people can run daily reports

Hello,

 

I don't have a network drive I can share. Right now I run daily reports in PowerBI that pulls the data from my Desktop. When I'm out I would like to have my colleague run the reports, but she can't because all the data is on my computer.

Are there any reccomended ways we can both run the data in PowerBI. Google Drive? One Drive? etc.

DAX is easy, CALCULATE makes DAX hard...

I pull several different Excel files from my desktop. Old school but it works. Each day I download 6 different reports and then use PowerBI Desktop to upload the new ones.

I'm wondering if I instead upload those reports to a Google drive and share it with my colleague, if she can then pull the old data in my absensce. 

 

So instead of PowerBI Desktop pulling the reports from my Desktop, it pulls from Google drive.
