Refresh schedule gets turned off

Is there any way to keep a scheduled refresh from automatically turning off?

    Hi Zarlot531 ,

     

    Could you please tell me why you want to do it like this? As the online documentAfter two months of inactivity, scheduled refresh on your dataset is paused. A dataset is considered inactive when no user has visited any dashboard or report built on the dataset. At that time, the dataset owner is sent an email indicating the scheduled refresh is paused, and the refresh schedule for the dataset is displayed as disabled. To resume scheduled refresh, simply revisit any dashboard or report built on the dataset.

      The issue is that the refresh schedule is getting turned off WELL before these parameters have been met. It seems like if a refresh doesn't work merely once or twice it is sometimes turned off in my experience. I have reports where the refresh schedule gets turned off, I get no notification, and the report isn't even close to 2 months old. Therefore, I'd like to simply make it impossible to turn off to save me the headaches.
