Data Refresh Confusion - Data Source Updated but Data Imported Not
So my usual data feed is endpoints on a server that query the database, and Power BI consumes the endpoints.
I do most data manipulation on the endpoints, so Power BI can receive the cleanest data possible.
But whenever I update the endpoints for an existing report (say adding a few columns) and refresh the report on Power BI desktop, the data never gets updated. If I do "Get data" from the same endpoint, the new query gives me the updated data.
Initially I thought it was because of old cache, but after I clean the cache, things are still the same.
I'm not sure if it's this way by design, or am I missing something here.
What I hope now is for the existing queries to update after the endpoints are updated, so I don't have to create visuals from the new query and delete the old ones.
Appreciate any help.
