Auto update of dashboard
AmraniO There are a couple threads that describe how to do this, but it is using the report itself, not the dashboard. Mostly because of the limitations that you describe.
If you have the report page showing on the monitors (not the dashboard), there are 3rd party browser plug-ins that can refresh the page. Thus giving you a "real time" look at whatever is in your SSAS model. The side effect of this is that my other recommendation of live streaming tiles would no longer apply :(
Anonymous, I am not sure by refreshing the page might result the issue. I would instead prefer to trigger the button "refresh" at the report section by any 3rd party if this could be possible. Thank you!
AmraniO By default, interacting with a report using Direct Query or Live Connection pulls the latest information and it should be displayed. So, there shouldn't be any issues using the report page...
Maybe someone else can offer a more developer centric solution to execute an actual refresh, but the fix here seems to be just using the report page instead of the dashboard (for the time being).
Anonymous appreciate your feedback! I would prefer that this option comes by default with PowerBI, hope to hear adding these features in the next releases...
