Hello, I want to set up a PowerBI data model with different Web (2) imports. What methods should be used to keep the data up-to-date?
Thank you for your feedback.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @EmericM ,
Firstly, you need to check if the data sources can be refreshed, open the Data Source Settings dialog in Power Query Editor, and then select Data Sources In Current File. In the window that appears, look for the following warning message, as shown in the following image:
If that warning is present in the Data Source Settings dialog that appears, then a dynamic data source that cannot be refreshed in the Power BI service is present.
If there isn't any warning message, we can configure schedule refresh in Service. It is not supported to refresh automatically with import mode in Power BI Desktop. We need to click refresh button to update data in Desktop.
