Schedule Refresh set for wrong time after BST Clock Change in UK

Hello,

 

I've noticed an odd thing today following the change of clock time for British Summer Time (BST) in the UK.

I have a report in the Power BI Service which is scheduled to run at 6am, 12pm, and 3:30pm each day.

 

However, the "Next Refresh" time is showing an hour later than the time that has been set e.g. 

Instead of showing that the Next Refresh will be tomorrow at 6am (02/04/2025, 06:00:00) it is instead showing (02/04/2025, 07:00:00)

I've had a look around for time settings but haven't found anything relevant.

To my knowledge, this has only started after the clocks changes on the 30th March, 2 days ago.

 

Dos anyone know why this is happening, and how to correct it please?

 

Many thanks,

Make sure to set the scheduled refresh timezone to UTC, not to UTC Dublin etc.

Many thanks for this.

How do I change this in the online Power BI Service; I can't see a setting where I can change the time zones?

Make sure to set the scheduled refresh timezone to UTC, not to UTC Dublin etc.

Ah i see, i thought it was a universal setting in the workspace settings, didn't realise you could do this in the refresh settings itself.

 

Many thanks for your help. All sorted 🙂

This has come up a couple times. If appropriate, change all your schedules to UTC so they don't change during the DST switches.
