So, I build with PowerBi Desktop and then publish.
I saw that PowerBI Desktop, has in preview, the ability to schedule a page refresh.
Do we have this in the service?
I am finding that after my scheduled dataset refresh happens, my reports do not update. I have to manually click on refresh.

can we schedule this, so it does it automatically? Or is a manual refresh the only way to do this?
