Content pack dataset model refresh
I recently created a dataset using PowerBI Desktop and published to PowerBI. I created an Org Content Pack and shared it to multiple users within the organization.
This model is still under development and changes from time to time. So my question is, after users connect to my dataset through Org Content Pack and authored some reports and dashboards, whenever i make some changes to the dataset and publish back to the PowerBI site, will the users receive the latest changes?
Thanks!
They will be presented a message for them to get the updated content pack. If they choose this, they will get your new content pack and keep their existing personalized version of the content pack. Generally, content packs include data, reports and at least one dashboard.

"If Jane has not customized the original content pack, then the new changes are automatically applied. If Jane has customized the content pack, she receives a notification that there is a new version. She can navigate to the content pack library and get the updated content pack without losing her personalized version. She'll now have two versions: her personalized version and the updated content pack."

Thanks for the reply. However, after users connected to my org content pack with the dataset, when they click on the dataset to begin authoring a report, a msg will immediately prompt asking them to Personalize the dataset. Only by clicking Personalize they could start using my dataset.
So I'm wondering, in this case, they have already personalize my dataset right? So when I push the updated dataset, will they also receive them automatically? Users have no rights to edit the content pack nor the dataset.
