Refreshing with PowerBI Free user
I'm a bit confused because of licensing of PowerBI and Personal Gateway. I have MSSQL Express with some data. I have PowerBI Desktop with some reports. I have account on app.powerbi.com, reports ...
I have the same issue. I am working with a new customer and when i had all ready and try to configure the gateway to "refresh now", the message you text is shown. This is crazy, please don't remove refresh now from free content, i can lose so much customers because of this.
I read this change and now can't with on premise gateway, but at least let us use the personal gateway as free.
Anyone found a solution to this? We may later buy PowerBI but we are in the early stages with simple stuff.
There does not seem to be an easy way to do a manual refresh of data anymore.
thanks
