Can we create active timer in Power BI

HI Team,

I have a requirement where i need to see the active timer based on Current Date /TIme without refreshing the page.

 

Eg Let say i have one column which has a static Date & TIme eg :(12/05/2023 : 10:30) and Current Date /Time is (12/05/2023 :11:00) so my active timer will display 30 mins and its keep progressing like active clock without refresh.

@Anonymous This is the only feature I know of that might fulfill the requirement: Automatic page refresh in Power BI Desktop - Power BI | Microsoft Learn
