Make functions refreshable when the data source is a parameter of the function

[bloigge]

Like discussed here: http://community.powerbi.com/t5/Integrations-with-Files-and/Refreshing-queries-with-functions-doens-t-work/td-p/2450 - queries where data access happens inside a function and where the data source is dependent on parameters to the function should be refreshable.

This needs to be implemented super urgently!

Must have feature!

Indeed a MUST-HAVE feature. Please provide urgently as this is a blocking factor for us !

100% frustrating to go through the process of preparing reporting using the List.Generate function to only find it won't refresh in the service. This feature is needed ASAP.

Absolutely a must. This stalls the functionality of most of the dashboards I create.

Needs fixing quickly. Just spent 3 hours designing a report - all works fine on the desktop but as soon as I publish and try to set up the scheduler I find it's unsupported because of functions I've used in setting up the source data. 😞 😞 😞

As much as functions are stressed in the Power BI and Power Query Deep Dive presentations, it is instrumental to allow us to use functions to fully utilize the capabilities of Power BI. I am currently refreshing and republishing the data manually several times a day, which over time, will drive us to search for another solution.

It's very important feature. Anybody knows any workaround to refresh data from online app? In my case I load data from JIRA's API as source. I am using Json.Document(Web.Contents()) but parameters passing to URL from table. It means I generate table with column A with parameter values and then create custom column where data from source stored - Table.AddColumn(#"table", "data", each Json.Document(Web.Contents("" & "?parameter=" & [parameterValue]))).
