Hi power2 ,

 

As far as I know, currently Power BI only support you to refresh by Reload or use the Refresh option.

  • Reload: The report page reloads every time PowerPoint is opened, so you need to use this option only if the report has changed while you’ve had PowerPoint open.

    If all you want to do is refresh the data, use the Refresh option in the Data options menu instead.

And Refreshes the report page or visual with the latest data from the Power BI service. Note: Refresh doesn't trigger getting data from the data sources.

 

For reference:View and present live Power BI data in PowerPoint - Power BI | Microsoft Learn
