Scheduled Refresh now under Optimize Performance
So the refresh schedule configured under Optimize Performance will refresh my import sources? It's not just for automatic aggregations?
This seems an unnecessary change - I can't find this documented anywhere. Why not just leave scheduled refresh where it is? It may not be a bug but it sure as hell is bad UX.
In your initial screenshot, isn’t there a schedule refresh under Optimize Performance? It’s just that a new feature, automatic aggregations, has been added to premium capacity, so the name has changed, and schedule refresh is placed in Optimize Performance. Can't you use it ? ? ?

You've missed my point and haven't answered my question:
"So the refresh schedule configured under Optimize Performance will refresh my import sources? It's not just for automatic aggregations?"I'm not trying to be rude but the links you've provided are for Automatic Aggregations which is for Direct Query sources. I have import sources in my model, so the documentation isn't clear on refreshing them. I have mixed model datasets in non-premium workspaces which still have Scheduled Refresh available, so from a UX perspective this change is confusing.
I couldn't find anything while search but now this post is top of the Google results, so hopefully is anyone else has this issue they can see this. Thanks for your help.

If you doubt, you can check it after you modify the data and refresh. Refresh and automatic aggregates don't affect each other. They are different features, just under the same category.

Thanks, I've verified that this does work. Still think it's awful UX though. Have a good day!
