Report refresh

Hi everybody !

I have a little problem with a refresh.

 

In fact, I have an automatic refresh for all my database but for one of them, if I want to refresh the visual, I need to go on Power Bi, in repport section and actualize manually.

 

On the following picture, I am interesting by the figure which is not hidding.

 

When someone modify this figures in my enterprise, and when a refresh is done, the figure have to change automatically... The problem is that I need to click on actualize (red button) for having changement.. I want to have all automatically refresment and not to have this kind of process...

If someone know how I can do that or if it is possible..

Thanks

 

Best regards

David

@DavidB023 Depending on whether or not you have the browser open during the refresh, how long your waiting, etc. there is a cached version of those visuals so that your report doesn't break during the refresh. The report should update periodically after the dataset, but it isn't instantanously during the dataset refresh... In my experiance it is more of an order of operation. 1) Dataset refreshes 2) Report then gets refreshed 3) Dashboard gets refreshed

 

The pin live page tile should update when the report is updated though.

@DavidB023 Please combine this thread with the other one you posted here - http://community.powerbi.com/t5/Service/Last-value/m-p/445047/highlight/false#M47051 

What type of connection are you using? Import, Direct Query?

How long are you waiting for the visual to update? 

Does the dataset say it has been refreshed and you don't see the change? 

Hi @Anonymous

 

Sorry for not combining but the other post is a little bit different and work now, this problem seems more difficult.. 

 

I use local server import in Power Bi Desktop. Then I publish from it to Power Bi. 

 

I wait 5-10 minutes and the database refresh worked but I need to click on actualize (red) in order to refresh visual.. Maybe it could come because I pin a dynamic page directly on my dashboard ?

Thanks for these informations, I totally agree with you because I test severals times to refresh and test my refresment and I observ that Internet connexion, different computers or other thing could slow down my refresment. Outside of that, it works.
