Dataflow Schedule Not Working
Hello DPCCGF,
Thanks for your question.
F2 capacity is very small (2 CU) and is not guaranteed to run refreshes exactly at the scheduled frequency.
I find that refreshes are queued and may be delayed if the capacity is under load or throttled... That’s why you’re seeing them run only every 2 - 4 hours.
To run every 30 minutes reliably, you’ll need at least F4 or higher.
Alternatively, I recommend to use Power Automate or the Fabric REST API to trigger refreshes more predictably. This bypasses some of the scheduling throttles (but still depends on your capacity).
Hope this helps.
Sounds good, but should I not be able to just refresh ON DEMAND, like I do in other data models that are not in a Fabric workspace? I am just trying that and nothing is working.
