    Hi rakesh_singh,

    As per this article, in Power BI Service, if your dataset is configured for a DirectQuery connection, there is a direct connection between Power BI and the database, there is no need to schedule refreshed, and datasets are refreshed approximately each hour or when interaction with the data occurs.

    In addition, do you use “Publish to web” feature and embed Power BI reports in your application? And you note that the report in your application is not updated after inserting a new record in the table? If that is the case, according to this document, data refreshes are automatically reflected in your embedded report or visual,  after refresh occurs in Power BI Service reports , it can take approximately 1 hour for refreshed data to be visible from embed codes.

    Thanks,
