Stop dataset update

Hi experts,

I have a question.

 we have 10 Power BI reports which are embeded in  web page .

the web page send request for updating datasets.(for some of them each hour, for some of them every 20 seconds and ....)

sometimes the datasets remains 'in progress' and it lead to stop the next update.

I want to know how could we stop the update 'in progress' when there is not any scedulation from power BI.

Thank you in advance.

Regards,

Matin

Hi, I just read your issue. Actually I faced the same issue and it is reasolved by just disabling the scheduled refresh of the dataset.

There is another way. If you start a manual refresh, it will also stop the inprogress refresh.

@Anonymous Sorry, having trouble following, can you post sample data as text and expected output?
Not really enough information to go on, please first check if your issue is a common issue listed here: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Community-Blog/Before-You-Post-Read-This/ba-p/1116882

The most important parts are:
1. Sample data as text, use the table tool in the editing bar
2. Expected output from sample data
3. Explanation in words of how to get from 1. to 2.

Thanks @Greg_Deckler  for the links .

actually I need a solution to kill 'in progress' Dataset from Power BI services. I don't think it depends on sample data!
and before posting my question I searched in the community and I could not find any thing which solve my problem.

Hi @Anonymous ,

A dataset shows "In Progress" whenever it is in "refreshing" state.

You can probably disable/stop any scheduled refreshes to remove it considering the fact that your data in dataset will not be up-to-date.

 

If you are talking about killing/aborting an ongoing refresh, I dno't think that is possible right now in services.

 

You can post an ideafor it here or raise a support request here for confirming from Microsoft Team.

 

Give a thumbs up if this post helped you in any way and mark this post as solution if it solved your query !!!
