Hi @GilbertQ,

 

I found the following statement online:

 

"With Free you can refresh up to once a day. With Pro you can refresh up to 8 times a day. With Premium you can refresh your data set up to 48 times a day. The minimum frequency for refreshing data was 30 minutes, which is lifted in Premium. You can schedule on a minute level now with this new plan."

 

Is it correct? If so, my organization has Power BI Premium, but I only see the 30 minutes option in Scheduled Refresh. 

 

Thanks!

Hi there

Yes that is correct from the documentation, if you wanted on a different time, I would expect you to schedule it via PowerShell

Hi @GilbertQ,

 

Thanks for replying.

 

I researched a bit, and it looks like I need to use PowerShell and Azure Runbooks to achieve custom refresh interval. I won't be able to do it via the user interface. Is that correct?

 

Thanks!

Hi there,

Yes that is correct, the interface only gives it to you in 30 minute increments
