It very annoying having to re-draw every dashboard that uses a specific report. It would be nice having automatic refresh of the dashboard tile when I change a report involved.

RE: Refresh dashboards tiles when i change a report

really frustrating.. why management/everyone needs a snapshot ...if that is the case there is no point in developing dashboards at all with Power BI.
I can take a picture using snipping tool and attach all those pictures together and show it to management.

This feature need to be prioritized. We get embarrassed during senior management presentations when they ask about the number pinned on the dash board which has no relation with latest refresh

WHEN IS THIS GOING TO BE DELIVERED? It has been two years. It's ridiculous how much time we waste repinning tiles every time we update a filter in a report!

RE: Refresh dashboards tiles when i change a report

This feature would be so much helpful as we use dashboards a lot and every time we change something in a report, we need to re-pin the tiles in the dashboard, as there is no automatic refreshing of dashboard tiles from the source report.

What would be the tentative timeline for this feature to be available ?

'@DAvid

How can i make sure the 'hard selected filters' won't interact with the tile i want to place on the dashboard when the tile(card visual in my situation) is placed on a report page that is using hard filters?

Kind regards,

Pim

RE: Refresh dashboards tiles when i change a report

1 trick...Pin a live report page to your dashboard this will drive the dashboard to automatically refresh.
But If you tiles still don't refresh its probably because you have 'hard selected' filters on them. Trick create a measure that dynamically updates with no need to select hard filters then these will also update.

When we can expect the time of completion? Much irritating every time we are pining visuals to the Dashboard :(
