Display the dashboard in TV / Big display

[Karthik12]

 Hi Team,

I have created a report with 5 pages and published in our premium capacity workspace.

I have set up auto refresh also and working fine in my machine.

Now, my management wants this dashboard to be displayed in a TV where I need to use chrome to display in a full screen mode.

But problem is everytime I need to click on the refresh buttom to update the visuals.

Is there any option to refresh the report visuals wheneve data model refreshed?

Hi there! Sharing the below as an alternative solution...

To automatically refresh your report visuals on a TV, you can use digital signage software that integrates with Power BI. These tools let you display your report pages on a big screen in full-screen mode and handle the refresh automatically whenever your data model updates. Fugo is one of these.

This way, you don’t need to manually click the refresh button. Here’s a guide that explains how to set this up - hope it helps! https://www.fugo.ai/fugo/en/articles/7119702-power-bi-app-guide

@lbendlin Nope, dashboard also has its own refresh button andwe need to click everytime to get visuals updated even though model refresh. when we display it on big screen / TV, somebody has to click on refresh button everytime

That's not my experience. What browser are you using?

Hi, @Karthik12 

Thanks for lbendlin's reply. You can try his suggestion of creating dashboards for automatic refreshing. Or refer to the link below to install a plugin such as Super Auto Refresh for auto refresh. The easy way, Ctrl+R will refresh the browser page level.

What you have is a report, not a dashboard.  Create an actual dashboard in your workspace and pin the report visuals or pages to the dashboard. Then show the dashboard on the screen. It will auto update when the semantic model is refreshed.

Hi @Anonymous @lbendlin Do you mean that, I need to create dashboard again in the power bi service workspace?

I have prepared and already published into power bi service, and my workspace have a premium capacity license.  

Sorry, I am working first time this requirement, it will helpful if get eleborated more on this.

Thanks in advance.

Yes. First create a report either in Power BI Desktop or in the workspace, then pin report visuals to the dashboard as tiles.

Hi @lbendlin 

I have done the same and pin the table into the dashboard.

Untill the brower page in the workspace get refreshed the dashboard visuals also not getting refreshed (I set an automatic refresh for every 30 mins, it got actaully refreshed but page opened in long time which means somebody needs to refresh the workspace chrome page to get dashboard updated).

Dashboards automatically update when the semantic model refresh has completed successfully.
