Bug in relationship tab
Hello, after an update of Power BI Desktop, I have problem with the relationship tab. It doesn't refresh automatically for everything, new table, new column, new relation, etc.
So I need to close and restart each time to get my new data.
Does anyone know what's going on and have a solution ?
Thanks

Pldoyon1 That's a little vague. You could check the Issues forum here:

And if it is not there, then you could post it.

Pldoyon1 Maybe an image or something? I am not understanding what you are/aren't seeing. The Refresh icon in the ribbon?
Here are some examples :
If I add a column or a table in the Data tab, I don't see it in the Relationship tab.
If I add a relation between tabs, I don't see the line of the relation.
I have to close Power BI and restart to see it.
And even if I update a table in the Relationship Tab, my new column that I just added in the Data tab doesn't appear.
Hi Pldoyon1
Please check your desktop version, the latest version is 2.93.641.0 64-bit (May 2021). If your version is not the latest one, please download the latest one and try again.
Please right click in relationship tab and use refresh data function.
In my test, the new table will show in relationship tab(model view) successfully. And if I relate two tables by column1, the line will show as well.
You say that when you upload new table or new column into PBI Desktop, it won't show in model view. However they will show after you save the file and restart. Model view will show the models if you upload models successfully. So if you can use new table or column but you couldn't see them in model view, maybe it was a delay caused by huge data, large data model and so on.
They are in your model, try to refresh your model.
