Power BI - Schedule refresh
By default, Power BI allows up to 8 scheduled refreshes per day for datasets in Power BI Pro. However, if you need to refresh your data more frequently than that, you can consider upgrading to Power BI Premium or Power BI Embedded, which provide more options for refreshing your data.
With Power BI Premium, you can set up refresh schedules as frequent as every 15 minutes or even trigger refreshes in real-time using DirectQuery or Live Connection.
Alternatively, you can also consider using Power Automate (formerly Microsoft Flow) to refresh your data more frequently. You can create a flow that refreshes your dataset at the desired frequency and triggers it using a timer or other trigger. Note that this approach requires a separate license for Power Automate.

Hi Manokamna, may I clarify with you on the 8 scheduled refresh, does this only apply to Import mode?
Right now, I'm planning on using DirectQuery and 'automatic page refresh' to refresh my visualisations by querying for new data. I hope this does not have effects on my visualisation on my client end. Thank you!
