Maximize Your Power BI Pipeline Without Wasting Time on Dead Ends
You're right to question whether Excel VBA opening a file is the most reliable path, it often creates more dead ends than solutions. Power BI Premium with Copilot gives you a cleaner option: schedule a direct refresh through the service, or use Power Automate to trigger a refresh when a new CSV lands in SharePoint. Skip the Excel middleman entirely. Your data pipeline should flow forward, not loop through fragile workarounds.
Discover how AI can simplify your data refresh workflows across platforms
You've already got the right script in place, `workbook.refreshAllDataConnections()` proves the logic works. The missing piece is triggering it consistently through Power Automate, and that means pairing your OfficeScript with a simple flow action. Since your table's background refresh is off, the script handles the heavy lifting; just call it via the "Run script" action after a file open or on a schedule. It's a clean workaround that turns manual refreshes into a hands-off process.
