Not being able to use remote data sources appears to be a major limitation for Power BI online.
I have a web host, on which I run scripts that generate data files on a schedule that I want to use as data source for Power BI.
However it appears my only option is to manually update Power BI desktop with these data files and then publish updated report to Power BI.
I want to be able to have my Power BI online report connected to these remote data files, and then open report on Power BI site or on Android app, to always have latest remote data refresh.
When I am at https://app.powerbi.com/groups/me/getdata/ there is no option for remote data sources except for Azure and using Gateway connector.
There appears to be no options for connecting to remote server.
Am I missing something?
I have Office 365 E3 account. Are there options to get remote server data published into Sharepoint directory, and then source Power BI report from file in Sharepoint?
