Add Custom Date-Based and Data-Triggered Refresh Options in Semantic Model Settings

Power BI currently only supports daily or weekly refresh schedules, which is limiting for enterprise workflows. I need the ability to:

  • Schedule refreshes on specific dates (e.g., 5th of each month).
  • Trigger refreshes based on when source tables finish loading (e.g., SQL tables or flat files). Or at the very least assign a custom refresh date to each specific table.

Tableau supports this natively, and it's critical for aligning reporting with ETL processes. Please consider adding these options directly into the semantic model settings or dataset configuration UI—without requiring Power Automate or external tools.
