missing stream data

Hello,

 

I use RAW API to add rows of weather data to a dashboard in Power BI.

I add a new row every 5 minutes and can see gaps of data from 0:00am to 10:00am.

 

Is there such a limitation with free Power BI?

Hello,

 

I found the solution!

 

I send a date/time value with wrong format.

You MUST use two digits for hour, minute and second value...

Hi @uweklatt,

 

Based on document, I find that free trial user refresh data daily and the Pro user refresh data hourly.

 

Data RefreshPower BI (free)Power BI Pro
Datasets scheduled to refreshDailyHourly*
Streaming data in your dashboards and reports using Microsoft Power BI REST API or Microsoft Stream Analytics.10k rows/hour1M rows/hour
Live/DirectQuery on-premises data sources with full interactivity via the On-premises Data Gateway  
Live cloud data sources with full interactivity (Azure SQL Database, Azure SQL Data Warehouse, Spark on HDInsight)  
On-premises data sources requiring a Power BI Gateway - Personal and/or the On-premises Data Gateway.  

 

For more detail information, you can take a look at below link:
