Hi Anonymous ,

If you want to refresh the dataset, you maybe try to use rest api.

Triggers a refresh for the specified dataset from the specified workspace. An asynchronous refresh would be triggered only if any request payload except notifyOption is set. Asynchronous refresh has a response header, Location, which includes the refreshId and could be used to get refresh execution details in group or cancel refresh in group.

More details: Datasets - Refresh Dataset In Group 

 

If you want to refresh dataset and file name, maybe you way is a easy way.

 

Best Regards
