If this is the first time you are connecting to the storage account with Power BI, you will be prompted for the Account key. Retrieve this from the storage account under Access Keys.
Your data will then be imported into the report.
If you regenerate your storage account keys, you will need to update your Power BI report.
Once your report has been created, you can publish it to the Power BI service by clicking Publish on the Home menu.
Once published, you can schedule the data to refresh periodically to keep the report up to date. Do not refresh more frequently than the schedule of your automation runbook and don't configure the report to refresh at the same time - try 30 minutes later for example. There is no need to use a data gateway as the storage account data source is also a cloud service.
