Data limit on auto refresh

Hi,

 

I have a few tables that have a lot of rows and powerbi auto refresh fetches all the rows at the same during refresh. Is there a way I can limit the number of rows in a single pull. eg Pull the data in 10k chunks instead of 100k at a single time.  My DB gets hung up when such a big database if pulled in a single go. 

 

Some sort of limit offset option available?

Hi @Anonymous,

Based on my research, if you have the Premium license, you could use the Incremental refresh function to set the partial refresh.
