Sharing a report for refresh
Is there a way to share a report to another user to allow them to perform a "Refresh Now" on a report data set?

RandyRitter This functionality can be achieved by creating a Group and providing admin rights to the users.
I set up a group. Is there a way to publish to a group? I couldn't find one so I ended up publishing to my workspace then I created a Content Pack and added the group to it. The users I added to the group were given Admin permissions. None of them, not even the report owner were able to refresh the report from the group.
Any ideas? Thanks!
RandyRitter Groups are for "Teams", or several people that should all have the ability to modify/refresh any report or dashboard. They aren't really designed for end user sharing.
In your scenerio, if the individuals should have full control, then create a group, and add the users as ashishrj mentions.
If not, then "no" there is no current way in which an end user can initiate a refresh on a dataset that is owned by someone else and requires it.
