Hi bidevsugmen,

 

Are you using direct query mode? In direct query mode, when need refresh, power Bi will send an request package which contains a SQL query like(select XX from XX where XX) based on columns in your dataset in powr bi service. It doesn't check if the data model has been changed.

 

However, you can see the added column after refresh your PBIX in PBI desktop because PBI desktop can check whether data model has been changed while PBI service can't.
