Page Refresh - Not Dataset refresh - Button

So you can enable preview of the automatic refresh within PowerBI Desktop.

After reading the article, this will not work for as the preview of automatic refresh is only for Direct Query.

My two Datasets are Excel and SharePoint, so they are imports.

 

I have my Datasets scheduled to refresh.  Not an issue.

 

I create my stuff on the desktop and then publish it up to the service.

My Dataset refreshes happen in the service.

What I am seeing is when I refresh the dataset, I also have to refresh my report, to get the new data.

Once I do that, my reports reflect the new data.

this is a pain to have to go in and do this, especially since I have these reports inside of Microsoft Teams, and there is no refresh there.

 

Is it possible to add a refresh button or something like that inside the report?

Hi there

As far as I know there currently is no button to refresh the page via a button once it has been updated.

You could have a button to refresh the entire page which would be the same as clicking on the refresh button?
