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?

Solved! Go to Solution.
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 Refresh | Power BI (free) | Power BI Pro |
| Datasets scheduled to refresh | Daily | Hourly* |
| Streaming data in your dashboards and reports using Microsoft Power BI REST API or Microsoft Stream Analytics. | 10k rows/hour | 1M 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:
