Incremental Refresh does not refresh fully the first time
My PBI report is using only sharepoint files as data source. I followed this video to set up an incremental refresh: Incremental Refresh with SharePoint Files - YouTube I managed to follow ...
Glad the video helped out. Seems like you got it working, but maybe you viewed the report before that initial refresh and just needed to refresh the browser to see the updated report. Also, you are correct that the initial refresh needs to process all the files/partitions, but the later ones should be much faster.

The video is great and very easy to follow and I watched it carefully few times to see if I didn't miss anything. I refreshed the browser page multiple times and I'm 100% sure it was after the refresh completed. I tried republishing couple of times - still the parameters are not overwritten and report shows only one day of data as per default parameters.
