    Hi nir,

     

    You can add a calculated column (Last Refresh Column) in the model with the formula =NOW()

    And measure Last Refresh Date :=MAX(Table[Last Refresh Column])

     

    Since calculated columns are calculated only on model refresh - it will make sure the calc is right

HI Anonymous,

 

I just refreshed my data set and the dashboard date refreshed has updated as expected.  So I don't seem to have an issue there.

 

How do you refresh just a dashboard tile?

 

Thanks

Hi,

 

I was noticing that you can have the dashboard tiles displaying a recent refresh date even though the data set itself has not been refreshed, so I think it would mislead the user about the data.

 

You can click on the ... in the top left of your dashboard next to share, and there is an option to refresh the dashboard tiles as well.
