Browser Page Refresh: Reflect new data after scheduled refresh

I have set scheduled refresh and need to have new data in every 5 minutes, but report isn't showing new data unless i refresh browser. How can report reflect new data without refreshing page (I know that i can set browser refresh extension but its not practical because it has to appeare on several PC-s)?

On report server you cant set it. you need to have PBIE Pro license or service. dashbord refresh is the easiest way to refresh. in my situation it is best solutions to set browser extension which will auto refresh in set time.

Hi @giorgilomidze,

There is a Google Chrome addon that can be used.  You can have report page open on Chrome and set time after which this add on should refresh the page without having you to click on refresh button.

Hi @erfaldo,

Did not quite get your qestion?
Are you asking in relation to auto refresh?

 

Yes I have a report published in power I server that I access with IE. Data is refreshed correctly but I need to reload the page to update data. I just wanted to know if there is any feature in power I server side to change this behavior.
I cannot use the chrome feature of autorefresh plugging due to admin policy that block installation.

Thank you for your help.
