    Hi nandic ,

    Thank you for clarifying. Deployment pipelines are able to reliably detect changes when a report or semantic model is republished from Power BI Desktop. However, if changes are made directly in Power BI Service such as editing titles, filters, or formatting these are considered service-side metadata changes and may not always trigger change detection in deployment pipelines.

     

    This means you might see the change indicator appear inconsistently when making edits in the service.

    To ensure consistent detection in the pipeline, it is best to republish the report from Power BI Desktop before deploying.

     

    Thank You.

Hi nandic 

 

As far as I am aware. The deployment pipelines do not detect metadata changes for report visual pages. It's only to the underlying semantic model. So this is something. I would recommend looking into and seeing as to why it is not working as you expect.
