Synching the refresh time for different visualisations

Hello,

 

I have 2 visualisations that take 3 seconds and 10 seconds to update when I change slicers. Please can you tell me how to make them both update at the same time (i.e. after 10 seconds) so that the user doesn't get confused which part of the report has updated and which is still pending.

 

Thank you,

  • Hi PowerWhy ,

     

    In the current version, there is no setting option to do this. The refresh time depends on many factors, such as the size of visualization, network and so on. When using slicers to update the visualizations, the time it takes is associated with the  size and complexity of the visual. If the data is large and complex, it will take a little more time. 

    You can submit it to an idea.

    And I suggest that if you are using DirectQuery sources or Live Connection, you can try to use automatic page refresh. Automatic page refresh is available for DirectQuery sources and some LiveConnect scenarios. The default value is 30 minutes. The minimum refresh interval is one second.

     

    Please refer to the following document to learn more about automatic page refresh.
