Anonymous,

In Power BI Desktop, when the data source(output file in your scenario) changes,  the visuals in Power BI Desktop can get updated only when clicking Refresh button.

You can publish the PBIX file to Power BI Service, configure gateway and set schedule refresh for the dataset. This way, Power BI Desktop can be refreshed automatically.

Hi,

 

Thanks for sharing the information. As an alternative solution, is there any way where this challenge can be overcome.

Can you please suggest other alternative solution.

Just for the more clarity, I am reiterating the problem:

I have some visuals which is created from R script visuals. Since, R visuals are not impressive and also there is no drill down functionality I therefore need to convert them into power BI visuals. I can do this using DAX however due to slowness of DAX function I am not allowed to use DAX. Please suggest any other solution apart from using DAX.

 

Regards,

Naveen
