Automatic refresh data in the Powerbi application on service?
Hi Lena. There is a confusion here. The Power Bi App will show new data when schedule refresh. I'm using that on my company and I have built it for others. The "Update App" is only for manual changes like changing colors in visual, adding a new column to the dataset, changing a measure, etc. If you have your latest changes on the Power Bi App, then just configure schedule refresh and data should flow at the dataset and app.
Make sure you don't have some cache in there that won't let you check the changes as soon as you refresh. You can refresh visuals with the top right button or F5 to the browser after the schedule refresh because it should work:
I hope that helps,
Hi ibarrau thank you so much for your answer but it means that everytime the dataset is refreshed we must have necessarly click on this button?
I was hoping for an automatic update at the end of the dataset's refresh.
It seems more logical with your demonstration (but still not enough O:) )
It's a lot of work when you need to do that everytime you want to refresh data for all dashboard especially when the dataset works automatically.
But obvisouly it's not your fault just a statement about the system !!!
Thank you again and have a good day
Super UserWell, it depends on how you use it. If you have it open all day, yes you might need to click it to see changes. However, if you open you report two or three times a day, each time you open it, it probably has been updated and refreshed thanks to the browser. Browser cache can be a pain.
Maybe soon Fabric will change this with direct lake. We'll see.
