Faster automatic page refresh, PPU or Premium Capacity?
Hi stefan_iceland ,
It depends on what kind of capacity do you have, and it doesn’t depend on your license.
If you use the share capacity, you can refresh it by manually.
And if you use the Premium capacity, you can use the manually refresh and REST API refresh.
As for how to use the REST API, you can refer these links below:

Hope this helps you.

I am not talking about the scheduled data refreshes.
I am talking about the "page refresh" in the service (I am using a direct query data source)
Would PPU allow me to get this down to 5 minutes?
Hi stebo_iceland,
No, PPU can not set the page refresh to 5minutes. You need a Premium capacity.
When selecting Auto page refresh as the refresh type, you need to provide the desired refresh interval.
The default value is 30 minutes. (The minimum refresh interval is one second.) Your report will begin refreshing at the interval you set.
If you are the administrator and need to make changes to the refresh interval, visit Configure workloads in a Premium capacity.
When clicking on show details Power BI will provide further information on:
1.If the feature is enabled by your admin (only when logged into your Power BI account)
2.The minimum interval allowed by your admin (only when logged into your Power BI account)
3.Actual rate of refresh (usually longer than your selected interval)
4.Last refresh time.

Thank you so much, exactly what I was asking!
v-yinliw-msft is there any way for me to have a report that refreshes more frequently than every 30 minutes using a Power BI Pro licence?Hi stefan_iceland ,
