    Hi Anonymous 

     

    Schedule Refresh is only available in Power BI Service, not in Power BI Desktop. From the screenshots, you are using Power BI Desktop. So you have to refresh the data manually through either of the following ways:

     

    In Power BI Desktop refresh of report visuals, data refresh, and schema refresh all happen together using

    • Home ribbon > Refresh button
    • Home ribbon > Transform data > Close & Apply button
    • The context menu (right-click or select the ellipsis) on any table then choosing Refresh data

     

    Best Regards,
    Jing

By PowerBI imported reports, do you mean that you've connected to an existing dataset on PowerBI service? If so, there's no need to schedule a refresh, as the data in your report will be querying from the latest data in the original dataset. As long as the source is refreshed, your report should be using the most up-to-date data.
