Limitation to Direct Query Refresh? https://github.com/microsoft/PowerBI-JavaScript/wiki/Embedding
Hi Anonymous ,
I can't give you an accurate answer. However, you can make an idea in Ideas forum to let more people see your requirements:

thank you for your prompt reply. Is there a limitation to the number of refreshes? Our POC has embedded Power BI dashboard in a .net application and when data is updated by user, we want to trigger a refresh.
Community SupportHi Anonymous ,
The Data Refresh API shares the same limitation(8 times per day) with "Schedule Refresh" with a Pro license. After exceeding the limitation, the API call would get the response saying "Number of refresh requests in last 24 hours exceeded limit".
If you'd like to lift this limitation, you may have to buy a premium license(48 times per day).
Thanks for your reply. However, the 48 times a day limits the true integration with a web application where more updates are possible.
I have another question
is there a limitation to the kind of data source used to refresh using javascript API

Hi Anonymous ,
There is no limit on the kind of data source.
Thank you for your prompt reply.
Do you think in the future the limit on the number of data refreshes will be removed?
This will help with complete integration with web applications where we have multiple users making updates impacting backend database.
