Wait for Power BI dataset to refresh using the API
- 4 years ago
You forgot to set the value of $status inside the loop.
Don't ask for it every five seconds. Every minute is enough.

Thanks for your reply.
The value of status will be set by the Power BI Service, I'm using the Start-Sleep to wait for status to change to "Completed" when the refresh completes. However, once I see the refresh has completed the new status isn't reflected to exit the loop.
Thanks.

You were correct in the end, thanks!
I needed to get the status from the $history.status within the while loop, I was getting this from the status variable outside of the while loop so this was never changing. After setting the while loop condition status to the while loop status the correct status value was returning to exit the while loop...phew!
