Dataset Refresh History showsOn Demand
Anonymous From my understanding you get 8x refreshes per day. It doesn't matter how you mix them, if you do 2 manual and 6 scheduled anything beyond that in a 24 hour period would fail. 8x is all up number.
Anonymous..For manual refresh (going to dataset and click 'Refresh now') there is no limit . I can refresh it any number of times. If we schedule it or refresh it thru api or any other way then there would be limit of 8 per day. That is what i was wondering, if we trigger the refresh thru api it should be considered as manual only but its not
Anonymous Can't find the source of where I thought it was limited in manual, so I'll go with your answer if that is what you are seeing. I would disagree with your premise that an API should act the same. It makes more sense that they lock down the automated refreshes to limit the bandwidth on shared resources in Power BI. (Which is why they limit this). You get better scale with a premium license (48x refreshes per day) which implies they actively shut that down in the general Pro license set up.
