Visuals Not Refreshing In Power BI Service

Hi sandeepsai! Thank you for this answer because I think too that this was the issue! As I noticed the formats of what got published to Service, one is a data set and the other is a report. I noticed under the ‘dashboards’ tab, there’s nothing listed. And I was wondering if that was the issue, that technically its not a dashboard and that’s why the visuals don’t update. Thank you for this information about the distinction between dashboards and reports.

My goal is simply to create a dashboard of data quality or key metrics, and have these dashboards refreshed daily/weekly. I want these dashboards accessed via PowerBI Service and when the scheduled refresh goes through, the user should see the dashboard’s data up to date and current.

How I started was I created KPI cards in PowerBI in effort to try to make a dashboard. The data quality bar graphs which is the issue I posted about, are bar charts. But the issue will be common with both, since I created both in Desktop and want the visuals to be refreshed on daily/weekly basis on Service. What you’re saying is I need to create these dashboards in Service. Is your recommendation to create from scratch in Service or as you say, I have my report published in Service now and pin visuals or entire report pages to create a true dashboard?

Thank you,
