When you import your Power BI Desktop file from a local drive, data, along with other information about the model, is loaded into a dataset in the Power BI service.

Because the data sources are external, you can manually refresh the dataset by using Refresh now or you can set up a refresh schedule by using Schedule refresh.

When you refresh the dataset, Power BI does not connect to the file on the local drive to query for updated data. It uses information in the dataset to connect directly to the data sources to query for updated data it then loads into the dataset.

When you set up a refresh schedule, Power BI connects directly to the data sources using connection information and credentials in the dataset to query for updated data, then loads the updated data into the dataset. Any visualizations in reports and dashboards based on that dataset in the Power BI service are also updated. For details on how to set up scheduled refresh, see Configure scheduled refresh.

Make sure Power BI can sign into data sources. If a password you use to sign into a data source changes, or Power BI gets signed out from a data source, be sure to try signing into your data sources again in Data Source Credentials.
