    Hi SAG28 ,

     

    Your two solutions:

    Dataflow&Dataset: scheduled refresh

    Dataset: incremental refresh

    You can compare the advantages and disadvantages through the refresh time in "Refresh History" and adopt the shortest solution.

I am aware that incremental refresh is possible for both pro and premium. But you can't do incremental refresh for dataflow and dataset when using both.

 

I'm just interested in knowing if I should continue to use dataflows, after which my datasets refresh from these dataflows OR if I should only use datasets, so we do not have to update twice.

The users/viewers only have pro license, so premium is not an option.
