Schedule automatic Refresh when data source is SQL Server + CSV Files

[RogerSteinberg]

Hi everyone,

My reports fetches data in two ways:

1. SQL Server database using the "import"data connectivity mode

2. Folder (csv files are dumped in every week)

I would like to publish the report to the PowerBI server so that users can view up-to-date data.

How can schedule an automatic refresh every day at a specific time?

Thank you.

Hi @RogerSteinberg

You could configure a schedule refresh for datasets.

Refernce:

configure schedule refresh

if you don't have merge/append queries in your dataset, you can use on-premises gateway.

If you do, you will need use personal gateway.

Do you have a Gateway installed? And is it Personal or Enterprise?
