    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

Within Power BI Desktop, this works fine! However, after publishing this to PowerBI.com and executing a refresh within the browser, the result of the Last Refresh Date is always displaying an hour too early. It looks like it's refreshing and displaying the last refresh date and time in GMT timezone, but I'm in GMT+1. Is it possible to take into account the timezone?
