Data Update button

Hy Guys,

can it's possible insert a button in report with update button data?

 

instead of scheduling the update I would like to insert a button to start it when I need it.

 

thanks

@momodj20 , Not clear on the role of this. You can use bookmarks for button.

Hi @momodj20 ,

The picture you have provided is a dataset not a report in power bi service. If you want to update report, just use the 'refresh now' button to refresh related dataset and related reports will also refresh.

Or you can configure scheduled refresh, please refer: Configure scheduled refresh 

In addtion, what does 'update in report' mean? if you want to update the report data, just use the refresh button in report.

this is not a solution .
the solution is: the possible of insert one button for click in the report.

I want to give the user the opportunity to launch the manual data update via a button.
No refresh !!!!

HI @momodj20 ,

 

Just wanted to check on why this is required as there is already REFRESH button available in Power BI.

 

If this helps and resolves the issue, appreciate a Kudos and mark it as a Solution! 🙂

 

Thanks,

Appreciate your Kudos!!

Proud to be a Super User!!

1) the refresh button is not in the report

2) the button refresh not update a dataset but update visual object.

3) since I have created a db2 connection, I would like the click of the button to update the report manually, not in scheduling.

I want to insert a button in the report as those who have no experience must enter the dataset and update. Instead, to do a manual update, just click on the button.
