Refreshing tiles using live connection Oracle/direct query
Please refer to this document for Tile refresh.
As ankitpatira said, tile refresh updates the cache for tile visuals, on the dashboard, once data changes. This happens about every fifteen minutes. You can also force a tile refresh by selecting the ellipse (...) in the upper right of a dashboard and selecting Refresh dashboard tiles.

Thanks ankitpatira and Herbert_Liu for your reply.
Like you said, i have been waiting for 15 minutes and more, but doesn't refresh at all.
For this project i definitely need the refresh occurs authomatically.
I show the screen with the specific tile that i want to refresh then I forced to change data making an update on the database and i wait to refresh without touch anything, but it anything happens.
I proved to refresh using ellipse (...) and the refresh bottom , and it works fine.
Please tell me if i missing something.

In conclusion, Power BI Tiles doesn't refresh automatically, it needs to be manually refresh by clicking on page refresh bottom. I'm using a live connection and i'm using on-premise datasource.
I could not use Power BI Tiles to display changing information like airport monitors that show fly arrived status.
Is this correct ??Thanks

I tested with a live connection and used on-premise SQL, I think I have reproduced this issue today.
But it worked again just now, it seems that I did nothing and the tile in dashboard refreshed after about 15 minutes. Could you please try again to see if the issue still persists?
Best Regards,
