Auto refresh visual on report

[Anonymous]

Hi,

Is there a way to make the visuals of a report to automatically refresh after a dataset schedule refresh has been done? Right now, the end-user needs to click on Refresh on the page, click on the browser refresh button or hit F5.

Thanks

Hi  @Anonymous,

Refreshing the visual container updates the cached report visuals, within a report, once the data changes. So currently it is not live and you need to refresh the report /page manually. For more details, please check the online document.

Hi @v-frfei-msft,

Ok, thank you for your reply. I have already read that documentation. With your comments it's clear.

I think it could be a good thing if someone can make the following paragraph clearer. Maybe telling that in order to see up-to-date data the user must click on Refresh to read the updated cached report visuals.

Thank you

Hi there

As far I know this is currently the only way, or a user has to interact with the report.

Only dashboard tiles update automatically or on a defined schedule.

I am certain that there is an idea for this on https://ideas.powerbi.com
