Direct Query Refresh Frequency

Hi,

 

in which time the report server is refreshing the data in direct query mode on a sql server database? Is it configurable?

 

Cheers

In Direct Query mode you are literally querying the database directly - so the update frequency should be however often you're refreshing the database, which would be dependent on your SSIS package, jobs executing your stored procs, etc.
