PBI Premium Refresh data?

Hi, we are new users to PBI Premium. From our understanding, PBI premium can refresh up to 8x a day. Currently, some of our data source are connected directly to MS Platform like MSDyn. But in order for our dashboard to refresh, we need to go into the dashboard, click refresh and save. 

 

So, let say, if we host our dashboard on PBI premium, and it get refresh 8x a day. Does it mean I do NOT need to go into the dashboard, click refresh and save the dashboard? Is it a service in PBI premium or is it a extra paid service we need to subscribe to?

 

Anyone can advise? Thank you!

@bbbbbiiiii If you are using Premium "P" sku, you can refresh many more times than 8x per day - side note. The dashboard refreshes on it's own schedule though, and there will always be a delay from when you dataset/report refreshes. I believe this is around 15 minutes, but there is no way to set any configuration that will initiate an immediate refresh along with the dataset/report in the Service.
