Refresh PowerBI Dataset in Service

I have an on premise MySQL database, so I installed on premise data gateway:

Problem is refreshing settings on server are not suitable for me...

 

I can't tell service to refresh only on working days ( monday-friday) and also I would like to now

If there is an API or shell to perform a manual refresh outside the service.

 

Something like

 

refresh dataset_id  in a bat script or powershell ( I need to refresh dataset after an internal ETL process finishes)

 

 

Regards

Currently, it's not supported to custom a schedule for schedule refresh. It can only be daily or weekly. You can vote this idea.

 

Regards,

And is it possible to trigger a refresh... after a file is loaded in database

 

some API to do

I'm curious about why you don't want refreshes to occur on weekends?  We don't have much data change over our weekends so there isn't much value in allowing the refresh to occur, but we just let it go because its all hands off.

 

If you really really don't want refreshes to occur over the weekend, could you schedule something on the gateway itself to turn off access between certain days and times?  It can't refresh if the gateway is "down"

We do not update source database on weekends
