No data sources for Scheduled Refresh with Azure DevOps connector
I managed to get my report to schedule refresh by moving it from the on-prem server to the Power BI cloud. Either there is something wrong with our on-prem server, or the DevOps connection is supported in later versions, but it's working for me now.
It's not possible. Your only method is manual refreshes for anything coming out of Azure DevOps.
Thanks, mhotek1. It doesn't seem to be limited to Azure DevOps though. I have other reports that use web APIs to import data from different sources, and I can't get them to automatically refresh either.
Neither can we. We have Azure DevOps mixed with SQL Server data, which forces us to use Import instead of Direct Query. The SQL Server data will refresh, the Azure DevOps data will not. We can't schedule a refresh, we can't even manually refresh it on the server. Our "refresh" is done by someone logging in every morning, downloading to PowerBI Desktop, hitting refresh, and then publishing it back to the server.
We have to do this with Azure DevOps and any other web APIs. The only thing the PowerBI Report Server seems capable of refreshing either manually via the Refresh button on the report or scheduled is when its a SQL Server database. No other data sources we are using will refresh except within PowerBI Desktop.
Ditto! I have a similar setup. I am not able to update my DevOps data via my onprem PowerBi Server.
