Hi there,

 

Unfortunately, not.

We've moved away from using Power BI for such kind of dashboards for now. Some time ago, this refresh ability was added to the Desktop version for Report Server, however it did not work when deploying the dashboard to the server.

 

I guess this will change with time, and actually, I've not tested the latest versions for an update on this.

    Could you tell me what other tool you used for this kind of dashboards instead of Power BI?

     

    Thanks.

      For the most we've established realtime dashboards by use of Python and Dash (Dash Documentation & User Guide | Plotly).

       

      It is not as easy as drag-n-drop for the Open Source version. The Enterprise has quite some wrappers and I believe also a WYSIWYG editor.

       

      Good luck!
