Refresh Power BI using Power Automate

Hi,

 

I want to update my power BI dashboard automatically, using Power Automate. I have 1 excelfile where all my data is saved. This excelfile is located on a sharepoint. My goal is once the excelfile is updated, the power BI dashboard refreshes automatically. I tried to implement this flow, but this does not work.

I get the following error:

Has anyone an idea how I can fix this flow?

 

Thank you in advance.

Hi @nele ,

 

According to the error message, Invalid dataset refresh request. Another refresh request is already executing.

I think there is Parallel refresh. 

 

Did you configure a schedule refresh for other datasets that the refresh time overlaps?

Thank you for your response. I am new in Power Automate, so this was the first flow I created. Other flows or automatic refreshes are not included.
