Problem with updating the Power BI Report Server dashboard
Problem with updating the Power BI Report Server dashboard (Version: 1.21.9032.4573 (build 15.0.1116.121), released: September 26, 2024) One report is successfully updated with the Completed Data Ref...
It turned out to be much simpler. Friends, it turns out that updating data in SQL Server takes longer, and the dashboard simply connects when the data in the final table is not yet ready. Therefore, it is empty. The issue has been resolved.
This is a known quirk with Power BI Report Server the refresh succeeds but the report shows stale or empty data.
Report Server caches rendered reports. Even after a successful refresh, users may see a cached (empty) version. Try opening the report with ?rs:ClearSession=True appended to the URL to force a fresh render. You can also check the cache settings in the Report Server portal under the report’s properties.
The fact that the problem is known does not make it a solved problem. Dashboards on the server are opened by business users, it is unlikely that they will add something to the link. Is there a solution? Maybe some settings on the server will help solve it?
