REFRESH A TABLE IN POWER BI DESKTOP

 

Hi 

 

I have a data model in Power Bi Desktop, the tables are loaded in diferent data sources. It is possible to refresh only one table in my model instead of refreshing all the data model? 

 

Thank you

Yes, 

 

find the 3 dots "..." towards the end of the table name and click on it.

This seems to be missing in Sept 2018 build?  (I swear I used to use this?!?)

I know this used to be there, but this no longer seems to be there at least as of the Sept 2018 build??  

(this is a DirectQuery dataset does this matter, I'm so sure I used to do this). 

 

Direct Query is inherently refreshed. A DQ-table always uses current data.

in the past, while refreshing a single data source in Power BI, I used to see the progress or number of rows being refreshed. 

But did anyone notice in the recent past ( probably from June 2024) I can't see that progress

is anyone else facing the same issues?

any suggestions/solutions?

Thanks
