    Hi 170323003 ,

     

    If you want to refresh your data in power bi service please refer to Configure scheduled refresh. 

     

    If you want to refresh your data in power bi desktop. As of now, Automatic refresh is not available within Power BI Desktop. The only refresh option within BI Desktop is the manual Refresh you find in the top ribbon. Here is an idea: Auto refresh data in Power BI desktop 

     

    And you can also refer to  Automatic page refresh in Power BI with direct query data source.

     

    If this post helps, then please consider Accept it as the solution to help the other members find it more quickly.

     

    Best Regards,
