Hi @Usha_pk 

you can also use Power BI API to refresh dataset on-demand

Hi @Usha_pk 

 

I think it's not possible directly in Power BI Service, but you can use Power Automate and set a flow:

Hello @Usha_pk ,

 

Schedule Refresh doesn't work with a condition, so this is not currently feasable.

 

If you want you could scheduale refresh once everyday, as a pro license you have 8 refreshes per day so you could also refresh it 8 times to cover all day incase any update happened.
