Hello @Lora_0121 

 

With a Power BI Pro license, the automatic data refresh limit is 8 times per day per dataset. This means that each dataset in your workspace can be refreshed up to 8 times within a 24-hour period. The limitation applies to scheduled refreshes and API-triggered refreshes combined
