    HI v-menakakota : This model does not have a manually configurable refresh option. I did it using APIs.

     

    Thanks,

Hi v-menakakota : I have a few updates since.

1. I was trying to detemine if I could figure out the multiple reports used on the current report by looking at the datamodel this while to proceed with a delete and rebuild report approach.

2. But suddently as of now,  it allowed me to take over the data credentials from the previous user (as per the documentation) without triggering the OAuth2 error I initially faced (screenshot shared in my earlier post) for no apparent reason.(confirming bug behavior) 

 

3. Since it now takes my credentials without error: how can I resume scheduled refresh:

Per the MS doc section:https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/collaborate-share/service-modern-usage-metrics#usage-metrics-report-semantic-model

 

Thanks,

Anand

    Hi  AnandGNR  ,

    Thank you for the update  and  you were finally able to take over the data credentials without hitting the OAuth2 error That does seem to support the possibility of some intermittent behavior or a backend issue during the ownership transition.

    Go to the workspace where the Usage Metrics Report dataset (semantic model) resides. Under the Datasets or Semantic Models section, locate the Usage Metrics Report. Click the Settings icon next to it. In the Data source credentials section. Make sure your credentials are showing as valid.

    Scroll down to Scheduled refresh. Toggle it on. Set the preferred refresh frequency. Click Apply or Save.

    Since the usage metrics semantic model is still in preview, there may be occasional schema updates that could affect custom reports built on top of it.


     

    If I misunderstand your needs or you still have problems on it, please feel free to let us know.
