Embed link does not update file with new data

Hi all, 

 

Quite a frustrating problem which seems like it shouldn't exist. I assume I am doing something wrong. 

 

Problem is: updates to .pbix files are not reflected in the embed link when I overwrite the file. They work when I save as a new file name. The file is simple, a data table of 12,000 rows and 5 columns and a chart to nicely show the data. 

 

When I re-save the .pbix file with new data, I publish the file and the changes are reflected when I view the file in  https://app.powerbi.co - but they are not reflected in the table accessed via the embed code. 

 

Any ideas?

thanks a lot in advance for any hints.

    jsnodin Depends on what you mean by embed. There are a bunch of different ways you could be embedding, if you are using an embedded license and embedding in an application then it should be instant. If you are using publish to web (free and open to the public) this refresh usually takes about an hour so delays should be expected.
