How to print refresh status in the report?

[Jason2500]

Hi

I have created a report using dataflow. My data is getting updated daily. I can see the refresh history in the dataflow and also my report is getting updated. Below is my dataflow refresh history,

However, I would like to print the refresh date and time in the report which should be automatically updated whenever data is getting a refresh. This would help the user. Is there any option to do in Power BI?

Hi @Jason2500 ,

You can use Power Shell or  Power BI Rest APIs to get refresh history.

Refer to:

Datasets - Get Refresh History 

Datasets - Get Refresh History In Group 

If the problem is still not resolved, please provide detailed error information or the expected result you expect. Let me know immediately, looking forward to your reply.

@Jason2500,

See the article below for a solution. The concept is to capture (in Power Query) the current time in PBI Service when the dataflow refreshes, and then convert it from UTC to your timezone.
