Provide a way to programmatically refresh data from a PowerBI Desktop file.
For example using a cmdline: "PBIDesktop.exe MyReport.pbix -refreshAll"

RE: Programmatically refresh PowerBI Desktop files data

You might want to check out Power Update - it can perform scheduled refreshes of both Excel/PowerPivot and Power BI Desktop files. Our local Microsoft rep hooked us up with it and it is working well.
