REFRESH HELP!!!
Hi All, Two problems I am running into. I have my data set connected to a file on SharePoint. In the server, when I click "refresh" nothing happens. Then when I go to the desktop app it times out...
I did not find a real solution, I have to delete and reupload the fle to work.
I would also question why the query is taking so long to refresh. However, if you need to override the default timeout limit, if you are using Web.Contents() to get your excel data, you can use the approach in this post

If this works for you, please mark it as the solution. Kudos are appreciated too. Please let me know if not.

Pat
