refresh data every minute

Hi,

 

I am plannng a call center dashboard with Power BI. I am struggling with the automatic refreshs. I need to refresh my data every minute. Is there a way around handling this? My data is coming from an online source (API).

 

Tanks,

Deniz

@multiScout,

You could consider using Direct Query mode with your data source to get live data. For more information, you can read this link regarding Direct Query: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/desktop-use-directquery
