Hi @Anonymous,

Do you mean add a refresh button in Power BI report?

You can use Microsoft flow to invoke Power BI dataset refresh API, then use PowerApps to trigger the flow. In Power BI report, add a PowerApps custom visual. You can refres to @GilbertQ 's suggestion here: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Service/Can-we-create-custom-Refresh-dataset-button-in-Report-page-in/td-p/537874
