Disabling "Include in report refresh" not working
- Anonymous8 years ago
Anonymous,
" These PBIX are published in the Cloud and are scheduled to refresh themselves overnight as well as during the day."
"Include in report refresh" option only works for Power BI Desktop, it doesn't impact the refresh process in Power BI Service.
In Power BI Desktop, when you disable "Include in report refresh" option, data will not update in report view of Power BI Desktop after you click "Refresh" button in Desktop.

Am I the only one reading this and thinking, "What the heck? That's POOR DESIGN by Microsoft!"
Disabling the "Include in Report Refresh" should mean just that, "don't try to refresh this data sourcr". It should NOT mean, "don't try to refresh this data source ONLY if you are using Power BI Desktop. But if you're using the Power BI Service, then try to refresh it!"
So the ONLY way to have a data source that does NOT get refreshed is to put it in a "Enter Data" table manually?!?
Sorry to say, but I'm VERY disappointed in MS for this design choice!
Hi All
i am happen to saw this post.
I like to know if I have all my CSV raw data at DropBox , And I need the PBI to perform a schedule refresh or reload during 3 Am. Can it be done ?
Hope some one can share with me.

Anonymous Not sure how getting/refreshing data from DropBox is at all related to the "Include in Report refresh" feature. For best response from the community, you may want to start a new thread, or even SEARCHING the forums for a similar topic. I fount several. Perhaps this thread will help:
