report charts do not automatically update after dataset refresh
- Anonymous7 years ago
Actually, the reports do update automatically. However, I just discovered that the Power BI reports are cached in your web browser. So, to dump the cache, you either have to click on 'Refresh', close out the tab and go back into the service, or close out the browser entirely and go back into the service. Obviously, those all require manual intervention. However, in the usual scenario, a report consumer closes his / her web browser at the end of each day anyways, in which case it's a non-issue.
Hi Anonymous,
From your description, your refresh operation is for dataset and it will not apply for your report, so you need to refresh your report manually, if you want to update your report automatically, I suggest you add a web plugin that could refresh your browser automatically.

Hi Anonymous,
If you mean to refresh your data set and the reopen your report, it do will refresh, but if you mean to just refresh your data set and have nothing to do with your report, like you have said, the data is cached in your web, you do need to refresh automatically.
