DirectQuery doesn't update data - Power bi Desktop
The only way to fix it has been to revert to the previous version of Power BI Desktop.
It doesn't help me at all, because the data part is disabled and doesn't update the table in directquery, I had to downgrade the version to the one from August2025 to be able to update it normally. I think it's a bug from the latest version.
Hi Syndicate_Admin ,
The issue with DirectQuery not updating in the latest Power BI Desktop version can be mitigated by reverting to a stable release, such as August 2025, where data refresh functions as expected. It is advisable to report this bug to the Microsoft Fabric/Power BI team through the official Feedback portal or the Fabric community thread to facilitate a resolution in future updates. In the interim, consider using Import mode for critical updates and testing DirectQuery updates in Power BI Service, as the issue may be limited to Desktop previews. Retaining a copy of the last stable version, reviewing release notes for hotfixes, collecting diagnostic logs, and sharing your experiences in the community can also support proactive issue management and contribute to a quicker resolution.
