    I got confirmation that it will come back but that they don`t have a date for the redeployment..... It is working/back (for testing purpose) internally at Microsoft.

     

    We use it mostly for end of month reporting (a lot of refresh) so hope to be back before end of November.

Hi Astro,

As I tested, when you right click the dataset in Power BI service, you will see the latest refresh date like the highlighted in blue line.



When I click "MANAGE PERMISSIONS", I will get a similar interface line your screenshot, besides I don't find any option like "View Related", could you please share where you get the "View Related" option? 



Best Regards,
Angelia

    Hi Angelia,

     

    "View Related" is found by navigating to a Power BI App and then it's listed under "Actions" in the Reports Section.

     

     

     

     

     

    The screen shot from my previous message was from late September and shows the result of clicking this link. It lists the datasets in that report and the last refresh date. All of our users know they can (could) click here to find out how recent the data was. They only have access to the app and not the workspace.

     

    Now clicking this link has suddenly stopped displaying details of the datasets. This has changed in the last week.

     

     

     

    I wondered whether this was a permanent change or a bug. Our users have relied on this and now we'd have to change every report to put a tile containing the refresh date.

     

    Thanks

    Nick
