Hi,
I have a dataset that has dynamic data from a daily refresh:
| ID | Status | Create Date | End Date |
| 1 | Open | 5/1/2020 | |
| 2 | Closed | 5/5/2020 | 5/20/2020 |
| 3 | Pending | 5/3/2020 |
This data refreshes every day so each row will ultimately change its 'Status' and 'End Date'.
Is there a way to save a snapshot of the data so that every time it refreshes I can see the new status for the distinct ID?
For example
| ID | Status | Create Date | End Date | Load Date |
| 1 | Open | 5/1/2020 | 5/20/2020 | |
| 1 | Closed | 5/1/2020 | 5/21/2020 | 5/21/2020 |
| 2 | Closed | 5/5/2020 | 5/20/2020 | 5/20/2020 |
| 2 | Closed | 5/5/2020 | 5/20/2020 | 5/21/2020 |
| 3 | Pending | 5/3/2020 | 5/20/2020 | |
| 3 | Closed | 5/3/2020 | 5/21/2020 | 5/21/2020 |
Hi @Anonymous ,
I saw a similar post I recently. It's about in which scenario Power BI will save or drop old data when using Incremental refresh.

Hopefully works for you.
