Feature details

Previously, dataset owners had to provide credentials for Power BI cloud refreshes or use the credentials that the gateway admin defined on the on-premises data gateway. With this feature, which is currently in public preview, dataset owners can use their own user principal name (UPN) to schedule Power BI refreshes. We plan to incorporate additional feedback and fix bugs before the feature is made generally available.
