Hi,
is there an ability to detect changes in dataset refreshment on the PB Report Server?
I am looking for something like an incremental refresh or an ability to save a refresh dataset for a longer period while the actual dataset gets refreshed? Hope it is understandable.
Thanks 🙂
Solved! Go to Solution.
No, Power BI Report Server does not have anything like the Incremental refresh feature. It does full refreshes only.
If you have a large model and need incremental refresh for an on-prem solution then one possible solution is to build the data model as a SSAS tabular solution. But that means you need to run a SSAS (SQL Server Analysis Services) server on-prem somewhere.

This is dissapointing but thank you 🙂
