Power BI embedded supports data refresh
It appears that you have to refresh the PBIX file manually and re-import each time you have updated data. Hopefully this is just a limitation of the preview version. It's disappointing that they went this direction, rather than allowing you to reference reports and data sets that have previously been published to the powerbi.com site. They already have the support there for scheduled refreshes, gateways etc. Hopefully this is offerred as a solution going forward.
Currently direct query is all we support in terms of refresh. Cached refresh support is certainly on our backlog as well as pushing data. As one of the previous posts suggests, you could update the file manually and re-upload it as a workaround for now.
Any Progress on progromatic data refresh for embedded now that we have GA?
Has anyone come up with a way to automatically refresh PBI Embedded report/workspace? Any ETA on possible solution?
When will this must-have feature be released?
Is there a way to automate the updating of the pbix file? I can automate the removal and relacement of the published pbix file, but can't find a way to build it automaically. Can this be done in VBA?
