I have a data source which uses oAuth2 authentication so is unsupported for direct use with Power BI. I can get the data into Power BI desktop but then it is not possible to set up scheduled refresh.
I created an app that pushes the data into Power BI using the REST API but, if I do that it seems I lose the potential to model anything on top of that source or combine it with other data sources. Am I missing something? If not then this seems like a hugely limiting restriction on REST data - it all needs to be modelled externally.
I'm getting very frustrated with Power BI's handling of data sources, it seems fine for the most simple of scenarios but as soon as I look at anything even slightly more complex I hit a brick wall. Am I alone in this?
