https://community.fabric.microsoft.com/t5/Developer/Is-a-data-refresh-required-after-changing-the-datasource/m-p/624810#M18577 <P>Here is the scenario:</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>1. I use the api (<A href="https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/power-bi/datasets/updatedatasourcesingroup" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/power-bi/datasets/updatedatasourcesingroup</A>) to change a dataset connection (database/server/login credentials). This works fine.</P><P>2. The reports that use this datasource that was updated in above step are using import mode. So I need to get the new data into the report.&nbsp;</P><P>So here is the question. I have noticed sometimes that the datasource will automatically start a refresh after calling the UpdateDatasources and sometime will not. So programmatically I am always calling the API (<A href="https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/power-bi/datasets/refreshdataset" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/power-bi/datasets/refreshdataset</A>) to do data refresh after the update. But based upon the help documentation (<A href="https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/power-bi/datasets/updatedatasourcesingroup" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/power-bi/datasets/updatedatasourcesingroup</A>) it states something about waiting 30 minutes before doing a refresh, but I am not sure if this applies?</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>So is it ok to call a refresh after doing a datasource connection update, or do I need to wait 30 minutes, or will it automatically refresh after some time. Please note, I am not discussing dataset scheduling in this post ad I am already doing this. I am only addressing the issue after a datasource connection update has been just completed using the API.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Thanks for the help.</P> Fri, 15 Feb 2019 22:16:17 GMT Dan2 2019-02-15T22:16:17Z https://community.fabric.microsoft.com/t5/Developer/Is-a-data-refresh-required-after-changing-the-datasource/m-p/624810#M18577 <P>Here is the scenario:</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>1.

So i just leave it for the automatic refresh for now.</P> Thu, 28 Feb 2019 11:53:36 GMT https://community.fabric.microsoft.com/t5/Developer/Is-a-data-refresh-required-after-changing-the-datasource/m-p/634177#M18658 Bbooogie 2019-02-28T11:53:36Z
