Datasets Refresh

Hello all,

 

I'm so confused about how many times I can refresh my dataset. The schedules refresh is restricted to 8 times/day.

what if I use power automate to create a flow that refresh a dataset?

would it be counted as an on-demand refresh?

or is it going to be counted from the 8 time refreshes I have per day?

 

Please if anyone can help me because I spent 2 days reading and trying to do it but I didn't get anywhere.

Hi @Anonymous,

 

the existing limits apply, also for Power Automate.

Have a look at this blog post: Refresh your Power BI dataset using Microsoft Flow.
