Refresh Report in TV Mode

Hello

 

I have created many reports which we wish to display via TV Mode. However, once the report is in TV Mode, the report does not refresh in relation to the Dataset refreshing behind it. 

 

This is quite annoying as; 

 

1. You have to close down TV Mode and manually refresh the report 

2. It kind of defeats the object of Power BI displaying 'Live Data'

 

Any discussions or ideas are welcome

 

Cheers!

 

 

  • Hi robgill12,

     

    There is workaround for this by adding the ?chromeless=1 parameter to the app's URL, run it on Chrome, install an automatic refresh plugin, such as Super Auto Refresh, and put the browser in full screen mode as well.

     

    In addition, you can submit this requirement on Power BI Ideas and vote it up to improve Power BI and make it better.:smileyhappy:

     

    Regards

      Hello in our company we have the similar issue and I have been researching the problem for while and didn't find any solution.

      However you can use the workaround which v-ljerr-msft provided. It is fully functional.
