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

I agree that the dashboard needs to update based on the chart or at least have an option to allow that . If you change data slicers on the non dashboard chart (one that was previously pinned) it will not be updated on its dashboard - seems to me that it should be. It's not a dashboard of snapshots surely?

RE: Refresh dashboards tiles when i change a report

Please fix this. When dashboard tiles do not refresh based on the tiles in the reports, it's not a dashboard! It's only a collection of links. Now it's just confusing to add tiles with values to a dashboard, as the value is old the moment you add it.

RE: Refresh dashboards tiles when i change a report

Hi, just wondering when this issue will be solved because very annoying and not practical. What is the point of being able to pin visuals if they don't refresh automatically? Even if there is a filter on a month, should change data when we change that same filter in pbix and republish. Very disappointed of this limitation and hoping a solution very rapidly.

We rely a lot on the subscription emails that we get to check on data on a daily basis. The static pinned visual not reflecting the data in the report creates panic.

This is absolutely critical. Our company's management does not want to and need to see the little details of the whole "live report".
They only want to see the number that matters.
What's the purpose of having a static pinned visual anyways?

Appreciate if this solution could be solved soon if Power BI wants to be part of the IoT and Industry 4.0 ecosystem.

RE: Refresh dashboards tiles when i change a report

It is an very critical feature for us, currently we have commenting feature on tiles now, but when we changed the visual, we must delete the old tile, and re-pin the visual again, if so, the comment before will be lost. Keep hoping for this new feature.

RE: Refresh dashboards tiles when i change a report

This will be useful, but not high priority in my mind compared some of the other improvements needed.
