Doubt regarding Dataflow and Dataset

[madpimenta013]

I created a dataflow and used that dataflow as a data source in my report. I configured the automatic update in it normally, however, when I published the report, I saw that it created a Dataset as well. Then my question is: in addition to the scheduled update in the dataflow I need to configure in the dataset too, like a half hour later at least?

And another question: in the dataflow I am not able to configure the incremental update, because whenever I turn it on, it gives an error when updating the dataflow. If I configure this inside the report using RangeStart and RangeEnd, will it also work?

About this technical part I am very ignorant, so my question.

Hi @madpimenta013 

Yes to first question, Dataflow becomes the source of your Dataset and you ne need to measure how long it takes for the Dataflow to refresh then set the refresh of your dataset accordingly.

Yes to second question, use incremental refresh against your datset.
