Hi sss0379

 

Why do you need refresh the page?

 

If you have schedule updates in Power BI,  you do not need to refresh.

I still working in the extension, I want leave the slide time adjustable.

Any idea will be welcome :)

Hi _picoloto43

 

I needed to refresh the page to show the changes to my reports example: if my Viusalization changes then it wont be refreshed. The slide show still would show old data.

 

I found out the solution to the refresh exiting from the screen, I had to add ?chromeless=1 to the URL and the combination of your add-on and the auto-refresh help in slideshow and refreshing the slide with the latest data.

 

Providing detailed steps to anyone who would like to implement the TV Dashboard / Web Reports As Slideshow, with Refresh functionality.

 

- Google Chrome Browser

-Add-ons:

  (1) Auto-Refresh

  (2) @_picoloto43 Github solution for slideshow

-Login into PBI App Service in browser

-Select the report

-Hide all the toolbars/status bar of Google Chrome browser

-Select Full-Screen Mode

-In your report URL add "chromeless=1"

-Start @_picoloto43 Slideshow addin

-Start Auto-refresh addin

-Click the PowerBI Report FullScreen icon

-You should be rolling!!!

 

Thanks!
