Update Power BI App after changes made in report
Hi tomas12344 ,
There are 2 separate items here- refreshing the report dataset and making changes to the structure of the report.
When the dataset is refreshed, you do not need to update the app. The refreshed data will appear in the app automatically.
When you change the structure of the report (add, edit visuals, etc.), you do need to update the app. These changes will not appear in the app automatically.

Is this the case as well if you, for instance, just add a measure to the report? No changes to the visuals
Do you still have to update the app?
Thanks
when you add a measure, now you just changed the semantic model the app is using, since that measure does not exist on the last published of the app, so yes, you need to republish the new dataset with that measure and the report as well, so it uses the measure, and the app, so it uses these new versions of the model and report. It is all interconnected, the schedule refresh just update the data behind the dataset, not the dataset in itself.
