Hi  BIanon ,

 

Let's say you make changes to your file on OneDrive or SharePoint Online. Once you save the file, Power BI service syncs with those changes too, usually within about an hour. It's by desgin.

 

here is a more efficient way to automatically update your Power BI report when the data source in SharePoint changes. You can use Power Automate to create a flow that triggers a refresh of your Power BI dataset when the SharePoint file is modified.

For details, you may refer to Solved: How to automatically refresh power bi report once ... - Microsoft Fabric Community

 

Best regards.

    Here's the thing, I do not want my semantic model to be refreshed which is by design. I only want to fetch changes made to the report file.
