Streaming Dataset Setting: What the REFRESH INFO means and why doesn't it sync with the latest info

Hi everyone,

There is a problem when I was trying to create a streaming dataset and configure the API settings. 

as is shown in the picture, I've created a streaming dataset which name is 'Streaming dataset-Without history' which linked to one dashboard with no name(it doesn't matter).
I transferred some info through REST API and it works. (dashboard, I mean) 
I clicked on the streaming dataset but the Config Info really confused me:
    1. The REFRESHED info does not sync with the latest timestamp when I push info to this API.

    2. I re-adjusted the streaming dataset (add one more field with the name of '类别'), but nothing changed about the REFRESHED info.

    3. Considering that all invocation of data is outside PBI, I don't understand what the Next Refresh means here.

it is my first time to pose a question in the PBI community and hope to get some response.
I am not a native English speaker and if any place is not clear, please tell me.

Hi @MoonForYoung 

Information Update: 

This is by design. Normal dataset concepts like "Refreshed" and "Next refresh" don't typically apply to streaming datasets where data is expected to be constantly changing. Hence, we show the create time in the "Refreshed" field for streaming datasets. (ICM:278948913) This thread will close later. Thanks for your patience and understanding.❤️
