Hi Anonymous 

 

Using Chrome to auto refresh your dashboard is suitable for you.  For more information, please refer to:Displaying a Power BI Dashboard in Your Office – Victor Rocca's Blog

 

First, download an extension called "Easy Auto Refresh" with this link

 

Then you can set the time of auto refresh.

 

So your dashboard webpage will automatically refresh and don't need to reload it.

 

Here's a user who also uses Chrome to auto refresh dashboard, the post for your refrence:Solved: Power BI Dashboard on full screen with auto refres... - Microsoft Power BI Community

 

Best regards,

Hi v-yadongf-msft . I am having an issue with this. The slicer selections the user makes disappear each time the refresh occurs. Do you know if there is a way round this?

I have used a HTML script to set periodic refreshes of the webpage due to security issues of downloading an extension.

So if it is possible to do this through the HTML script that would be great. Especially as teh plan is to have seperat escreens for each slicer selection.
