Start a data refresh from PowerBI report

Hi folks

 

I have a PowerBi report and underlying data need to be refreshed in a very odd combination of dates once every month.

We wanted to give the end an option to kick off the data set from PowerBI report.

 

 

Wondering if there is a way to perform this action.

You'll need to create a Power Automate flow that they can click on and trigger the refresh. This is limited to 8 times a day for normal reports, or 48 times a day for reports in a Power BI Premium workspace.
