I'm new here and I'm looking for advice and support to solve my pbix report problem.
My power bi report developed a bug of data refreshing successfully but the data doesn't get updated on the power bi desktop app.
It's a very strange issue where the data is refreshing without any errors but the data itself doesn't get updated in the report. (PBI Desktop app). When I manually refresh it on PBI Desktop report by report, it shows up the updated data without any issues.
So, I have been doing so in the interim to have my data reflect upon publishing in Power Bi service.
I have tried to clear the cache, updated the desktop app, changed the computer, even uninstalled and reinstalled but all seem to bring no success.
Any idea why this might be happening please? I don't see any refresh errors so I'm failing to understand what issue to debug here.
Any help will be greatly appreciated, thanks!
As per screenshot, above, the circled refresh button isn't updating the data changes on the pbix desktop app but when i refresh independent report as below; it works.
When i refresh each individual report, the data reflects.
@Tiny_Planet , This Means when you refresh tables it get new data, but not for all at one go.
It is showing some error on refresh or open power query and check for any error there.
what is the version of the Power BI desktop you are using ?
Yes when i refresh at a go i dont get data updated, till i update per table. My Pbi version is 2.114.864.0 as per screenshot
