    Actually, I thought of a second way you could do this. Zapier can have PostgreSQL as a target. You could host a PostgreSQL database (e.g. on Digitial Ocean) and push data to a table there. Then Power BI can connect to that DB to load data.

    Zapier has the ability to run Python as a step in a Zap. You could probably (I haven't tried this) use that to push data from Zapier to a Power BI dataset using the Power BI API. It's not a trivial solution but I think it would work.

    I think this would be great and would instantly open up Power BI to get data from hundreds of other services through Zapier.
