Schedule refresh not working Power BI Premium Per User
I have a few Power BI pages that use data both on my local computer and from an API (Azure Application Insights). I need to refresh the data from Azure to keep the reports updated. What I'm doing right now is manually refreshing the page on Power BI Desktop and then reuploading the files to Power BI Service. This, however, takes a long time. I've tried On-premises gateway but I don't want the refreshes to be done on my local machine since it's a laptop and I can't ensure everything is turned on when I need to refresh it.
To solve this issue I downloaded Power BI PPU, but can't figure out how to set up the Azure refresh. I tried going through the advice outlined below but it didn't work for me. https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Service/Unable-to-schedule-more-than-8-refreshes-with-a-quot-Premium-per/m-p/1729257
Are there any recommendations on what I should do?

Hi vminvsky ,
According to your needs, if the local data does not need to be updated, there is no need to configure refresh, so you can directly use REST API to programmatically refresh your Azure data without configuring the corresponding gateway.
Then you can follow the steps below to configure refresh. For more information, please refer to the following blog description.

If the problem is still not resolved, please provide detailed error information. Looking forward to your reply.
