Sharepoint Report Refresh?

Hello BI-Community, we have a report embedded in a Sharepoint site. In this report we have a map showing locations of moving objects. The underlying data (long/lat) is refreshed evey 15 minutes....

MA We use the PRO version (trial) and have the same issue, so my guess is that it is not license related.

I had a discussion with IT today and they are convinced that this is a BI issue, definitely not browser-related. Could be their way to prevent users from circumventing their pay-wall...

Sounds plausible, but on the other hand would it make it an useless feature and leaves the question why they've implemented it.

But I'm very sure it did work, before I convinced my CEO to buy a monitor and place it central in our organisation.... :/

I've read it alsewhere, but now I noticed something else:
The report has a slicer in it, and when I change the selection of that slicer report will show the latest data, but only at some selections, and not all. And when I reselect the original value, the older data remains on screen.

  You are right about the slicer thing, which is why at first I thought it's a caching issue in Chrome. The only solution seems to be to close the browser tab and re-open, which defeats the purpose of the whole thing.
  
  Strangly enough, we have webcam footage in our report that appears to be updating in regular intervals (direct URL link).

    Got reply from PowerBi/MS:
    
    I can repro the same issue as you. I’ve reported it internally to Power BI Team: CRI 33615073
    I’ll post here once I get any update about it.
    
    That's good, hopefully they will fix it soon.
