the for the update that is (you need to publish online for that works remember you are just trying to get the two online tools to talk to each other again.😞

 

1. Go to Power BI - online version (make sure you are using the latest pbix)

2. Go to the page with the power app embedded.

3. Edit the page and change the app visual back to a normal table. Save the Power BI, then change pages, come back and then go back into edit mode.
4. Change the table back to a PowerApp visual.

5. Then navigate to your PowerApp.

and Done

    Whoa! Why did this work? Thank you!

All the sudden the PowerBIIntegration.Refresh() started triggering like directed in my Power App's code! WOW! What tf...Another nonsensical weird Microsoft quirk in their convoluted web of buggy overly-complex softwares that we need to work around
