Scheduled Refresh

Hi All,   I have setup a schedule in the morning for my PowerBI Report. This works fine, but is there away you can set up the schedule so it takes the name of the report and adds the date after it ...

    HI MattC2020,

    Nope, power bi does not support to do these operations automatically.
    In my opinion, I'd like to suggest you try to use programming language or script to coding an application to trace dataset status and try to use use 'Update Report Content In Group' API to change is report name.

    Logic: 

    1. Use 'Capacities - Get Capacities' and 'Capacities - Get Refreshable For Capacity APIs to trace special dataset statues and get 'last refresh' property for analysis. 

    Capacities - Get Capacities 

    Capacities - Get Refreshable For Capacity 

    2. If these contents are updated to date, you can extract refresh date time as parameters to invoke 'Report - Update Report Content In Group' API to change those report names.

    Reports - Update Report Content In Group
