Hi!

I have my data under sharepoint list. I would like my PowerBi to update automatically as soon as a piece of data is added to my sharepoint list.

Is it achievable?

Currently, I need to refresh my data in powerbi.

Thanks.

DANGER DANGER DANGER.

I strongly recommend you create a de-bouncer process in Power Automate to prevent refresh requests from bombarding the Power BI service.   That process needs to probe if a refresh is currently in progress, and needs to delay any new request for a reasonable amount of time.
