Kiosk PC dashboard

Hello,

I have a question. I have set up three kiosk PC's to TV screens in a producition area, all showing a dashboard with status on some KPI's. These kiosk PC's are viewing the dashboard directly from the app.powerbi. The dashboard is set to refresh everyday automatically. 
My question is: I have searched online, and I couldn't figure out why some people wanted the browser (Microsofgt Edge) to automatically refresh after x amount of minutes/hours. Doesn't the kiosk PC dashboard automatically update if i either make changes to visuals and publish the dashboard again or whenever the automatic refresh hits? So why is there a need for the browser to refresh as well?

Hi @Sashavg14 

 

If you are using a dashboard, you are correct in that it will automatically update, but what some people do is they want to link it to a report page which they often call a dashboard. THis is why they have to refresh the entire browser because it will port page will not automatically refresh.
