Hello community,
I'm having an issue with the PBI Rest API data refresh.
I'm using the custom connector (https://github.com/migueesc123/PowerBIRESTAPI).
I'm using an admin account. Everything looks good on desktop.
I have created a gateway source that also returns no error, added the custom connector to gateway etc.
Both on desktop and on the Service I have the privacy settings to Organizational.
The dataset contains other sources as well, SharePoint and databases.
When I publish the report my PBI data are accurate. But when the dataset refreshes, and it does so succesfully, it looks like its rolling back to a previous version of data and the latest changes are not reflecting.
Any idea why?
Any ideas on what can be the issue
Solved! Go to Solution.
It was a case of a custom connector file difference between laptop and gateway.
I had added new columns to the connector but the file on the gateway wasn't updated.
Hi @gp10 ,
I wanted to check in on your situation regarding the issue. Have you resolved it? If you have, please consider marking the reply that helped you or sharing your solution. It would be greatly appreciated by others in the community who may have the same question.
Thank you.

Hi @gp10,
Since this is a custom connector, I suggest that you contact the original person in Github. It appears to me that if you are not getting any errors then the final display or output from the connector is not quite working as expected. But, the person most familiar with the code should be able to help you out. In Github, that is migueesc123

Thanks for your reply. Dont think I will get a reply on github.
The result on desktop is fine, when published its fine, so the connector works, but after the refresh (succesful) it returns like a snapshot of PBI data that doesn't include recent changes.
I was wondering if this has to do with any particular settings on the Service or Desktop side of things.
Hey @gp10 ,
There is no setting in Power BI....but, it just occurred to me that MAYBE you are seeing a cached version? Maybe, just maybe, after the data refresh, you can refresh your browser and see if that makes a change?
