8 years agoHello,
I dont have power Bi Pro I only have the free desktop version. What is the limit for schedule refreshes for the free desktop? and where can I find the information that shower power BI pro only allows 8 schedule refreshes a day and why?
The reason for the constant refreshes is management would like dashboard to by as sync as possible to our sheets which we use to conduct our business.

8 years agoHi there, if you are only using the desktop then there would be no refresh.
The reason for the limit is that it is shared resources, so on Power BI Pro the limit is 8 times a day. On Power BI Premium it is 48 times a day.
If you need more real time requirements I would suggest looking at something that can stream the data from the source, instead of via an Excel file. Currently this type of capability is not in Power BI.
