Hi AnetaK,

 

Which data source do you use in the report? It the data source supports DirectQuery mode ( Data sources supported by DirectQuery ), you can follow Greg_Deckler's suggestion. When you interact with a visualization, queries are sent from Power BI directly to the database. Updated data is then returned and visualizations are updated. 

 

Regarding to use Synoptic Panel visual, you can follow this article: Visual Awesomeness Unlocked - Using the Synoptic Panel.

I want to use Exchange.

 

I am familiar with this visualisation.

I've mentioned Synoptic because for example in the PBI streaming mode it is impossible to use it.

 

EDIT: I don't want people to interact with the report/dashboard. I only want them to see the changing data.

Let's imagine I have an aeroplane picture and want to show if the seats are booked or not. I want the data to change automatically.

      Thank you. I'll read about it.

       

      EDIT: I think that your soultion makes it impossible to use Synoptic Panel, because it's a real time streaming.

        Hi AnetaK,

         

        It's possible that you can use the Synoptic Panel visual. In Power BI service, we can import custom visual to a report.
