How do users having other than the Owner Privileges can refresh the data set manually?
Hello All, One of the PowerBI projects I am working on, I am facing some challenges/question in regards to what can be done from a refresh perspective. So let's say someone publishes the repo...
- Hi there, currently only the Owner of the report will be able to refresh the report. As well as be able to schedule the refresh using the On-Premise Gateway as required.
Also remember that when sharing a report, the people who get the shared report either via a Share or App are read-only users. So read-only users will not be able to edit or refresh the reports.
And finally if you are using Power BI Pro, you only get 8 refreshes a day if using the On-Premise Data Gateway, or 48 refreshes if the App Workspace is on Power BI Premium. So if all users were allowed to refresh as and when they wanted, this could very quickly hit the 8 x per day limit.
