Hourly Refresh Stop Time

Good day

 

Please can someone assist, i have a Dashboard that refreshes every 30min and i set the start time at 08:00 AM, how do i get the Dashboard to stop refreshing at 23:00 PM and then only start again at 08:00 AM?

 

Thanks

    Hi MarkCam ,

     

    I would like to know what kind of license you are using?
    Currently the Power BI Pro license supports 8 refreshes per day and Power BI Premium supports 48 refreshes per day.

     

    The way to enable refreshes more granularly than daily is by explicitly adding the times for the refresh using the “Add another time” link.

     

    At this stage, it is not possible to implement your needs directly in Power BI through an option. It may seem complicated but it is a viable workaround.

     

    Hope it helps,

    Hi Caitlyn

     

    That is exactly what i did, had to setup multiple refreshed to end it at a certain time. think it will be nice to add a end time to the hourly schedule.

     

    Thank you for for the advise

     

    Kind Regards
