Tool to diagnose Query refresh

Hi there,

 

I have one dataset that is taking 30 min to refresh on powerbiservice. Is there a quick way to see how much time each query is taking to refresh?

Many thanks

You can turn on query diagnostics in Power Query on the desktop and do a full refresh. Query Diagnostics - Power Query | Microsoft Docs

It will give you a lot of info about each query. But what might run fast on your PC might be slow on the service, or vice versa. It is because the service has a different connection to the data than you do. The Service directly to SalesForce data for example might be faster if MS has a big pipe to the Salesforce data, but the Service to your database might be slower if it has to go through an on prem gateway and that connection hasn't been optimized by your IT department.

You could consider implementing a Campus efficiency tool to streamline data processes and track query performance more effectively. Exploring options like these can help identify bottlenecks in your dataset refresh and optimize the workflow.
