Extend "Include In Report Refresh" Further

[matt16]

The new "Include in Report Refresh" released in July 2016 is a great addition - now the data modeller can selectively turn on/off tables to be refreshed. It would be great to allow the user to set parameters and events to control when a table is refreshed. Eg a parameter that says "if a server cannot be found, then skip the refresh for a certain table". Maybe also allow users to set other events (or error codes) where selective processing can be managed. This will allow granular management of refreshing when a user needs to partially refresh a workbook as described here http://exceleratorbi.com.au/?p=17985

Super idea to pass the trigger into the hands of the users!

Error and event handling for this feature will elevate it to a benefit!

Good idea! Very useful in some cases.

I have a table of 50 million rows that never changes. I have a table of 1 thousand rows that needs hourly refreshing. Unless I can exclude the 50mill table from hourly refreshing, then I'm pretty much boned.

The power bi schedule refresh should be customized and allow refresh of specific data tables also. Some tables data is static and do not need any refreshing but the schedule refresh refreshes entire dataset. please solve this to make this functionality better

Please address this!

It's very strange not to have ability to just append data to uploaded before. I think this should be in the product from the very beginning.

should be a gift and lot's of time gain.

Please also make the PowerBI Service respect the option "Include in report refresh". Right now when I add a static data source (eg. zip-codes) which I don't want to refresh through the gateway, I can't use the gateway at all because he can't find the file with the zip-codes.
