📊 WHAT IS POWER BI?
Power BI is a business analytics tool by Microsoft. It creates a working environment suited for normal users, meaning tasks such as data extraction, cleansing, analysis and storytelling; these are made easily-accessible to citizen-users, and extendable for technical users. At face value it provides visually-stunning, interactive dashboards, but it’s built on top of so much more.

Thank you so much. It's very helpful and I can link file from 1Drive to Power BI now. One more problem is how to apply this technic for get files from 1Drive folder instead of one single file. Please help advise.

Thank you very much, until now I had not been able to connect PBI with my files in Onedrive. With your explanation it has been perfect. I have a question, can I do the same procedure to connect a PDF to PBI from Onedrive? Greetings from Asturias - Spain. How can I do to connect a folder that contains several files? Saludos desde Asturias - España.

Great tutorial! But will the Power BI dataset update automatically when the Excel file is edited or updated?

Hi, Embed option not available in my onedrive file.. Can u help

@kerkoules 2 ай бұрын

@solutionsabroad It looks like Onedrive has now changed the format and all my connections have stopped working. I am afraid it is not following your example anymore. The URL is different, the word "embed" is missing and the athkey is not there. Do you have any workarounds? Thank you in advance

Hi works great with personal onedrive. Do you have a work around for onedrive business?

Very interesting, thanks ! Is there any way to get data from SFTP source to power bi ?

@SolutionsAbroad 2 жыл бұрын

Hi there! You can't do it directly from SFTP, but you can create a Power Automate that lets you push the data from SFTP into somwhere Power BI can reach!: www.linkedin.com/pulse/how-connect-microsoft-power-bi-data-sftp-ftp-marcos-fattibello/

Awesome. Can I also connect to a OneDrive folder?

@serhiititarenko Жыл бұрын

I'm interested in it either.

@SolutionsAbroad Жыл бұрын

Hi there, great question! At the moment the only way I know how to is if there's an underlying SharePoint site linked with your folders. From what I know one drive for personal isn't officially supported anymore

@sabkuchdhela191 2 жыл бұрын

Does this method works with Power BI Service also? Like scheduled refreshes ?

@SolutionsAbroad 2 жыл бұрын

Hi there, yes! This is one of the reasons we use online sources like OneDrive, to enable automated, scheduled refreshes

I'm getting a notice which says 'Unsupported browser: Office uses new browser technology and works best in the latest browsers'. I've updated my firefox and edge, and have tried using both as default browsers. but still get the same notice

@SolutionsAbroad Жыл бұрын

Hey Joseph, sounds like your Javascript is disabled in one of your browsers, have you tried enabling it?

@1yyymmmddd 7 ай бұрын

Good to know. However there is an easier way to do that. You just do Get Data from Sharepoint and specify the file path down to "\layout".

@SolutionsAbroad 2 жыл бұрын

Hi Erick, unfortunately I still don't know of a way to do this, you'll need to set up a Data Gateway to make it work currently so you can pull the data from your local folder
