Hello all,

I am currently querying data from several csv files to Power BI for my dashboard, and I am trying to refresh the data every minute (this functionality is available in Excel).  I was planning on just using the desktop app to view my dashboard (it's only for myself) however I could also publish to the service and use the browser based dashboard if that is necessary.  My main questions are:

  1. Does the functionality exist to update either the desktop app or the published dashboard at 1 min frequency?  Where can I implement this?
  2. What data sources are necessary to accomplish this?  I can host my files on Sharepoint/OneDrive to create a live connection if that's necessary?

Mike

Hi Michael,

There's no refresh settings in Power BI Desktop as this app is intended for your design process. You'd need to publish the report to the Power BI service to schedule a refresh. From memory, I think you may be limited to 8 refreshes per hour unless you have a pro license.
