    I've got response from the Product Team.

    The behavior is by design. The users can use an URL parameter refresh with reload interval specified in minutes, e.g.: https://app.powerbi.com/view?r=<embedcode>&refresh=5

    Strange, I can't recall that I read anything about this function, but hey, going to give it a try :-)

Where do I put the Refresh? I have tried multiple location in the embed code and can not get his to work?

Todd,

 

Try this, click the Gear icon on the top right, then Manage embed codes.

Select the embed code for the report you've published to web and add the corresponding counter as specified in the solution. If you have refreshed or updated the report multiple times then it would 2, 3, 4, etc that you can try.

 

https://app.powerbi.com/view?r=<embedcode>&refresh=5

 

 

Hope that helps,

Hiram

    Hi Folks,

     

    I cant seem to get this working for me.

     

    hfleitas you seemed to me mentioning that the refresh=[value]

    the value should be some value which is maybe a version of the updated report?

     

    Do you know how to find such a version number I cant seem to find it within my embed codes.

    Also from the original message from customer services it seems to say the value should be the refresh interval in minutes?

     

    Thanks
