Datset Refresh Via RUN FLow

[blackbranded]

I set up a report and dashboard in Power BI and published it to a web link but the 'run flow' function for refreshing the dataset isn't working. Does anybody know why this issue is occurring?

Hi @blackbranded ,

When you add a Power Automate button visual, Please consider the following considerations and limitations:

• Additional manual inputs to the button aren't supported at this time. We plan to add support for this by the general availability release.
• Currently, we only have a few built-in templates; we plan to add more based on user feedback.
• The visual will only display flows within your default environment. We plan to add support for an environment selector by the general availability release.
• The visual isn't supported for embedded analytics.
• The visual isn't supported in sovereign clouds.
• The visual doesn't work in Publish to Web (public) scenarios, because unauthenticated scenarios aren't supported by Power Automate.
• The visual isn't certified while in preview. We plan to have complete certification by the general availability release.

I am using Power Automate for the Power BI add-on and I want to use the refresh button when embedding the report to publish to the web (public).

Hi @blackbranded 

I think that this might be a limitation in Publish to Web.

These are the settings I apply in Flow.
