Data not refreshing on web published report

My requirement is that I need to display a report on a wall mounted screen (without logging  in as I use a special service to display it) and have it refresh the data regularly.

 

Dashboards refresh automatically but I can't use a dashboard as these can't be web published (need to log in).

I have published a report to the web but even when the dataset is updated in PBI Service and I navigate to the url again the data in the report has not refreshed.

If I manually click refresh on the report in PBI Service this updates the report but only in PBI Service the web published report is still old data.

 

Any ideas?

Hi @Weka ,

Based on my research, there is no such way to speed up the progress. You can refer to this article: How it works (technical details).

Thanks that answers my question.

It caches "approximately one hour".

Good to see it documented.

 

This is fine for my purposes I just needed to know how long.

Turns out this updates after an hour or so.  I guess PBI is caching it (it is not the browser).   Any ideas where the documentation is on this or if I can speed it up?
