Data not refreshing on web published report

My requirement is that I need to display a report on a wall mounted screen (without logging  in as I use a special service to display it) and have it refresh the data regularly.

 

Dashboards refresh automatically but I can't use a dashboard as these can't be web published (need to log in).

I have published a report to the web but even when the dataset is updated in PBI Service and I navigate to the url again the data in the report has not refreshed.

If I manually click refresh on the report in PBI Service this updates the report but only in PBI Service the web published report is still old data.

 

Any ideas?

    Based on my research, there is no such way to speed up the progress. You can refer to this article: How it works (technical details).

    Turns out this updates after an hour or so.  I guess PBI is caching it (it is not the browser).   Any ideas where the documentation is on this or if I can speed it up?

      Thanks that answers my question.

      It caches "approximately one hour".

      Good to see it documented.

       

      This is fine for my purposes I just needed to know how long.
