Embeded report taking too long to update/refresh

I have seen many posts on this issue from last year, I was wondering if I have missed news of an update.  I have embeded code in an Access Database to show the Power BI report.  However I want to see quick updates to the graph as I edit the data in Access.

 

Currently I just use the "Link you can send in email"  https://app.powerbi.com/.....

 

Is there another method I can use to get an update within a matter of minutes/seconds rather than 1 hour?

Need Help

    Hi Lucy64,

     

    >>Is there another method I can use to get an update within a matter of minutes/seconds rather than 1 hour?

    I haven't found a way to apply these refresh immediately. As document told, the refresh of report is done, but it will delay for almost one hour to apply these update to the embed code which publish to web.

     

    Reference link:

    Publish to web from Power BI

    Updates to reports, and data refresh

    After you create your Publish to web embed code and share it, the report is updated with any changes you make. However, it’s important to know that it can take a while for update to be visible to your users. Updates to a report or visual take approximately one hour to be reflected in Publish to web embed codes.

    When you initially use Publish to web to get an embed code, the embed code link is immediately active and can be viewed by anyone who opens the link. After the initial Publish to web action, subsequent updates to reports or visuals to which a Publish to web link points can take approximately one hour to be visible to your users.

    To learn more, see the How it works section later in this article. If you need your updates to be immediately available, you can delete the embed code and create a new one.
