Power BI Auto Refresh for Visuals
Hi Anonymous
I would suggest using the Power BI Windows App. this will allow the app to rotate through the reports. Each time the report loads it would then reload the data showing the updated data.

What storage mode are you using in your model?
Import mode is not supported, needs to be direct query or one of the other options in the table in the documentation (which may be an issue if you have to use Sharepoint list as a source)

I have to use SharePoint Lists. So that means Power BI Windows App will not work for my case?
Could you use dataverse instead of SharePoint? it supports direct query I think.
If not, as a work around you can get software to robotise key stokes, we have used it in the past for display screens.
It would just press the refresh button at a set interval.

I'll give the workaround a try. Thank you!
