delay visualizing refresh data in power bi

Hi to everyone,

 

I have an Excel file connected to a Power BI dataset refreshed every nigth.

I noticed that the pivot table in the Excel file shows correctly the data after the dataset has refreshed.

On the other hand, my Power BI report does not shows refreshed data until several minutes or hours has passed.

 

Do anyone can explain me the reason?

 

Thank you in advance

Luca

Hello, please try using the refresh button on the top right to refresh the visuals

sometimes power bi caches the data and so the visuals do not update until you click this button

please accept the solution if it solves your problem

Hello Khaled,

 

thank you for your answer!

The solution you suggested me worked only if I open the report using Crome as browser.

It is fine but my client still have problems using Firefox..

I accept your solution!

It would be fantastic if you have any idea for this topic (Firefox)

 

Have a nice weekend 

Luca
