Advocate IDashboard Randomly Display Old Data
I am having this issue as well. Its been good so far but in the past 3-4 weeks, the data in the dashboard & tables is different from whats there in the query editor. To force the correct data in to the tables view and dashboard, I tried filtering the data in the edit query and removing the filter. after this the latest data appears for those records, Not sure about the other records though. Not sure if its a bug with one of its latest release or if I am doing something wrong. The data reaches the dataset perfectly Ok, but for some reason it seems to store the previous old data somewhere inbetween and its publishin that. I've also switched off the cache in the settings. FYI the issue is happening in PBI Desktop as well as thats where I was testing it (after seeing the issue inthe browser). Need someone to deep dive and provide a solution asap pelase.
Advocate IYes exactly, I can resonate the "for some reason, it seems to store previous old data somewhere" because I actually manually refreshed the dashboard and also cleared my browser cache but the problem seems to keep recurring randomly.
But funny thing is, Power BI desktop and the Power BI in service are perfectly ok, just the dashboards and the automated emails sent from them. I'm experimenting with the latest Power BI desktop version and also deleting the current dashboards to make completely new ones so everything is 'new'. So far, it seems the problem is reduced but still randomly occurs. I hope the Microsoft developers in this area can look into it. Thanks!
