    I have been doing some tests this morning with an Excel Powerpviot based report accessing data from an SQL On Premise Source and using the Personal Gateway. I can tell teh refresh has happened as both Power BI tells me it has happened and I can see the SQL Activity - but the data was still not there when I looked at the dataset or the report.

     

    Checking back a couple of hours later (having done nothing) - the data suddenly was there! So I wondered if the problem is that the reports are cached in my local Internet Explorer - refreshing the page (F5 and all that) - seems to fix it.

     

    So perhaps this is just IE caching for you?

That did the trick.

 

Now I see also that you can right click and "reload" to refresh the browser cache.

This step isn't a huge deal but it does seem like it should update automatically following a datasource refresh.

 

Thanks!
