    Hi jeggert,

     

    What do mean about "however, the report seems to revert back to the as-first-uploaded version of the data some time after the scheduled refresh"? Is there any error message throws out about refresh? 

     

    You can follow this article to troubleshooting the issue: Troubleshoot scheduled refresh in Power BI Report Server.

I have also experienced some of those experiences that you guys mentioned. It took me weeks to determine why the data refrsh is not working as expected. What I did was revert to the good old ODBC, as I am using mysql, and I opted for UNICODE, and it has worked for me. So far so good.

Hope this helps. Just configure the ODBC to Unicode (goto MySQL website), then test it, and it normally works. Been my problem also, so I just had to be creative.

 

Cheers,
