On-demand Refresh runs continuously (one after another)
- 7 years ago
Hi Anonymous ,
Does that make sense? If so, kindly mark my answer as the solution to close the case please. Thanks in advance.

Someone is manually running the refresh, or using the Power BI API's to refresh the data.
You can see it is doing this because in the image above, the Type says "On Demand"

Thank you Gilbert,
I know the difference between "On Demand" and "Sheduled".
1. There is no API for workbooks - at least there is noting in the Power BI REST API reference guide. I doubt that it is undocumented functionality - I tried hard to make it work a couple of month ago. Therefore I do not think it is BAU API call driven.
2. I am the only person who is aware of these files, who has access to (the only member of ) this PBI group. After all I can't imagine a person how would hour after hour refresh PBI with 5 sec intervals and trigger refreshes manually. The gaps between refreshes less than 10 sec with files taking 10-30 min to refresh data model.
This must be an undesired functionality / bug.
Kind regards,
John

Hi there
The only other option is that everytime you upload the dataset to the Power BI Service, it will do an "On Demand" refresh?
