I have developed in powerbi desktop a pbix file that I had published to the service already. The file is connected to local files, so I have to manually refresh the file in power bi desktop before I publish it. I refresh and publish the file daily. Now I am considering creating an app workspace, and moving this file under the workspace so I can assign administrative rights to someone else, and to make it easier to collaborate development and share.
My understanding is that after creating the workspace, I can upload the pbix file into this space. Then I can add others to help administrate and collaborate, before publishing the app to a broader group of users which I only want read access for.
The question I have is that once I publish this as a powerbi app, how do I refresh the data daily? Can I still open the pbix file and publish it to the service from there by clicking on the publish button on the top menu? Or do I have to go into the workspace, "get the data", and then republish the app?
