Connection only - trigger refresh

Hi.

 

What triggers a refresh to a connection only query? I have a workbook connected to other workbooks and when I update any external workbook, I can't seem to refresh the connection only query unless I use refresh all or edit query > refresh preview.

 

Cheers

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

In power query, we canot make the query refresh automaticly. So here, to trigger a refresh, We can only use refresh all and refresh preview.
