Scheduled Refresh Succeeds but Data Won't Update
spinachbisque How quickly are you checking the report after the dataset has said it has refreshed? The Dataset, Report and dashboard are seperate objects and are not all immediately refreshed after the dataset. It is in order. If the dataset refreshes, it is likely it will be 10-15 before the report, and then the Dashboard. You can also initiate a refresh in the report after the dataset.
If you know, and or tried the above, then this sounds like a bug or issue that you should raise in a support ticket or the issues page.
EXACTLY the same issue here. The refresh history claims that the data was updated successfully again and again, yet the report does not show any recent data, even after a manual report refresh. I have to open the report in the desktop app, refresh it and republish it to bring up to date data to the cloud report. What powerbi.com is doing with all that beautiful data it's supposedly gathering for us is a mystery.
I've semi solved the issue, by not doing any data manipulation in PowerBI at all - and only using one data source :S
We are experiencing the same problem - out of curiosity (as I saw some people mentioning above), does everyone kinda have the same situation happening here?
1. Multiple databases
2. Direct Query Datasets based on Views
Appears to be a pattern. The above is precisely what's up with our dataset.
