Why does Power BI say data last updated incorrectly at the top

I've been searching the internet for any information about how the ribbon at the top of our reports displays the 'Data Updated' information.

All of my reports are SSAS Live Connection, which means the act of processing those models is with the server. So I'm not sure if Power BI would know if the model was refreshed or not.

 

Does anyone know anything about this?

Hi @Anonymous 

Not very sure, information is not enough to go on. please check whether the data in the report is refreshed, if not please try to click refresh button manually. if the problem still not solved, please check the on-premise data gateway to see if it is working fine.

Hi, the report is containing new information as of today and each new day so it's definitely up to date. It seems to be displaying the correct date now, perhaps the dataset just needed a manual refresh proverbial 'kick' even though it's been processed.

Hi @Anonymous 

Really sorry for the late reply. I think it may be the data refresh delay caused by the automatic caching of web pages. 

Kindly note,
