Hi guys,
I am really struggling to use PowerBI in the following setup:
I have a PowerBI desktop. I Created a project where I import data from an excel file on my PC and I installed personal gateway and setup a scheduled refresh, so it will be published online also.
I get to endless problems with this setup.. some unclear errors during refresh that require me to google and try lots of stuff till I make it work.
Sometimes the personal gateway is not running. Now it just stopped running altogether.
I cannot even choose scheduled refresh.
In my gateways I don't see an option to delete.
It all feels like one big beta.
My question is if someone is managing to use this setup in a proper way?
Another question, can I just run the PowerBi report online (or from the mobile app) and it will just get the data from an excel file that is stored on OneDrive? I don't really need this scheduled refresh, I just need up-to-date data when I open my PowerBI report (I suppose as anyone else in this world?!)
Thanks
