unexpected second refresh

Hello everyone,

 

I'm encountering a peculiar issue with dataset refresh.

I have a Power BI dataset, and I've set up a scheduled refresh using a Power Automate flow at 7:15 a.m. once a day.

 

However, this morning, I noticed that there are two refresh entries in the refresh history. The second refresh started just 3 minutes after the first refresh was completed, and I had to manually cancel it. Both refreshes are labeled as "ViaApi," and they share the same RequestId.

I checked the activities log for my Power Automate flow, but I could only find the log for the first refresh at 7:15 a.m.

Does anyone know why this unexpected second refresh occurred and how to prevent it from happening again?

 

Thanks a lot !
