Refreshing Issue
I have set 6 times daily refresh for my report, but I kept getting email like this:
This error frequency occurred 1-4 times a day...How to avoid this situation happening?
Many thanks,
Echo

Hi @Echoy51 ,Thank you for reaching out to Microsoft Fabric Community Forum.
Please consider reducing the refresh frequency. As:
1. Power BI has limits on how frequently data can be refreshed, especially if you're using an external data source (e.g., a web service) with Web.Contents calls. If you're hitting the data source too frequently (e.g., 6 refreshes daily), you might be triggering rate limits on the source's API, leading to a 429 status code.
2. Power BI itself has limits on the number of refresh operations that can be performed on a dataset within a given time period, especially for free and Pro licenses. If you refresh too often within a short span, this can lead to throttling.
3. If you're pulling data from an external API (via Web.Contents), the external service may have its own rate limits (e.g., only allowing a certain number of requests per minute or hour).

Run fewer requests if you want to avoid the 429. group them better.
