@arock-well  the sharepoint currently still under test. so it has around 10 items only, and each item has been updated maximume one to 2 times only.

Could it be that the SP list is being updated frequently which results in the dataset being updated frequently?

 

Also, did you know you can create Power BI reports directly in the SP list and don't necessarily need a separate dataset in the Power BI Service under the Integrate menu?
