Hi @athul00000 ,

Based on the description, the button visual doesn’t work in Publish to Web scenarios, because unauthenticated scenarios aren’t supported by Power Automate.

Then, try to publish dashboards as an app in Power BI.

hi @v-jiewu-msft , hi @SaiTejaTalasila 
thanks for the info. At the moment my only option is to Publish to Web scenarios, and i guess power automate do not support this.

Hi @athul00000 ,

 

Do they have access to your power automate flow?

Just to add, the refresh button works when I am on the PBI services not doesnt work when the dashboard is shared to users via "Publish to web" links. 

Hi @athul00000 ,

 

Provide access to your power automate to your users and check whether they were able to refresh it or not.

 

Thanks,

Sai Teja
