Scheduled Refresh Automatically Disables
Hi danielhough
In my experience Refreshing never "simply vanishes for no reason". Power BI will deactivate your refresh schedule after four consecutive failures or when the service detects an unrecoverable error that requires a configuration update, such as invalid or expired credentials. It is not possible to change the consecutive failures threshold.
Refreshes are also paused if no-one access any Reports or Dashboards based on the dataset in two months, again there's no way to change this inactivity timeout.
Take a look at the Refresh history of the datasets and see if there's an error or more information there. You can also set it up to email you if Refresh fails, which might help with managing the Datasets.
See: Data refresh in Power BI - Power BI | Microsoft Docs
hope this helps.
