Power BI Report using Facebook real time data

I want to show the insights(page view, comments, posts, etc) data of my Facebook page in a Power BI dashboard, that is embedded into my web-page, I am able to show the dummy report by downloading the Facebook page CSV report. If I have to real-time update the dashboard what is the procedure for that.

there are at least two options:

  1. Connector
  2. API

Connector

At this very moment there might be an issue connecting Power BI to Facebook but in general you should be able to use the built-in connector.
Please note that with the connector, once your report is published in Power BI Service it will not refresh data in real-time, instead in semi-real time. For example, you can define to refresh the data source up to 8 times a day (using Pro license) or even more if you have Enterprise Premium Capacity.

API

Instead, if you really need to deal with real-time data the alternative is using the API offered in the real-time streaming service of Power BI.
