Can I automate Power BI workflows, such as data refreshes or report updates, using Python?

I’m interested in automating Power BI workflows, such as data refreshes or report updates, with Python. Can you explain how Python can be used to schedule and automate tasks like data loading, refreshes, or publishing, and outline any tools or libraries that support this integration?

Yes, you can automate Power BI workflows using Python with the Power BI REST API and libraries like requests for API calls. You can schedule tasks like data refreshes or report updates by interacting with the API to trigger refreshes and publish reports. Power BI Python SDK and Python scripts can also be used for task automation and integration into your workflow. For scheduling, tools like Task Scheduler (Windows) or cron jobs (Linux) can trigger Python scripts at specific intervals.
