browser cache issues with updating fields in visuals
Adding support to this issue.
It's a major problem for me, particularly in one of our key dashboards.
It's a dashboard that is constantly changing - in terms of layout, formatting, fields, etc - but when my stakeholders open it online, this weird caching issue means that the first thing they will see is the first page of the dashboard, but it could any version of the dashboard that has been published over the last several months. The underlying data will be correct, but it will not be the most up-to-date version of the dashboard (in terms of layout, formatting, fields, etc) that I have recently published.
A workaround seems to be to click that page on the left hand 'Pages' menu bar, and this then seems to wake the dashboard up and renders to the latest version.
Yet another Power BI issue - and I agree with the above comments: asking stakeholders to clear caches, or anything like that, is not optimal or sustainable behaviour.
