HI v-jiascu-msft:

 

I meant the refresh button on the top of powerbi.

 

 

Sorry, I didn't find where to adding a title which you mentioned. 

 

I need something similar like below in the dashboard.

 

 

 

Thank you.

Hi ffeng,

 

The Refresh in your post refreshes the report only, which doesn't refresh the dataset. Do you really need this function? I would suggest you create an idea here. 

Adding a tile is one function in the Dashboard.

If you want to refresh the dataset, you can do it like below.

Incremental_update_how_many_minutes_so_far_from_last_refresh2

 

Best Regards,

Dale

    Hi v-jiascu-msft

     

    Sorry, I am new to power bi, I didnt explained clearly. 

     

    I am using direct query, I dont need schedule a refresh on that dataset. 

     

    My requirement is to show how many mintues ago in report since user refresh last time, and the mintues will keep updating visually in the report.
