Google Data Studio Tips & Tricks

 1) Google Data Studio: Refreshing data of uploaded CSV file

Ans: 

a) If you are uploading the CSV from your local computer, Data Studio will not get updated with any changes you made later in the CSV.

b) You can use Google Sheets to store your data, instead of Upload a CSV file as the data source, you can import the data from Google Sheets to Data Studio.

c) Any updates on the Google Sheets will be refreshed on Data Studio after you click the Data Refresh button or wait for the default data updates which are 15 minutes.
