Live connection for Web URL

Hi Guys!!

I have created report based on source Azure status.

Source data is coming from Web URL and then on top of that report has been created.

Source web url data refreshes after set time say 5 minutes however i need to refresh report dataset manually to have updated data.

What i require is report will refresh automatically as soon as Web URL data refreshes like the way we have in LIVE CONNECTION or STREAMING DATA, i.e i dont want to refresh report manually instead it will refresh by its own.

 

So is there any way via which we can achieve the above requirement.

 

Thanks

Amit

@amsrivas , Actually Live is typically used for Analysis services.

 

Refer these for streaming, if they can help

Hi @amitchandak 

What is the significance of LIVE CONNECTION based on POWER BI SERVICE dataset.

Suppose i have a created report say R-1 based on Web URL and deployed to Power BI Service (R-1 dataset also deployed to Power BI Service) and then if i will create another report say R-2 and connected that R-1 dataset via (Power BI Dataset) , its become LIVE Connection. What is the significance of this LIVE Connection.

 

Thanks

Amit
