    Pro users have the ability to schedule refresh for daily (intra day) and weekly. For some datasets, monthly is the right cadence. Can we have a scheduled refresh option that is Monthly (and lets us choose which day of the month the refresh is to occur)?

    This is really a need and useful option. Please add it to Power BI.

    Any updates on this? It's been almost 3 years now.

    I also have a specific report that we want to refresh on the 1st of each month.

    I'm really surprised this is not an option. We're considering replacing our current BI analytics & reporting software (not Power BI currently) and this would be a significant barrier to us choosing Power BI.

    RE: Add "monthly" as a scheduled refresh option

    I have a specific metric report that only needs to be updated every month, so a monthly refresh option would be a huge asset to Power BI.
