    If there are many reports running at the time and one report seems like a resource hog, you would want to pause or stop a refresh so that another report can finish.

    Yes, please make this high priority in your next release. Else you are wasting developers time. This feature is expected in any tool which has schedule option. Microsoft has great standards. I think this is valid request from us. I am surprised it is not taken care since this voting started in 2016. Now we are in 2020. Does Microsoft take so long to enable a feature?
    I think nobody cares about these ideas which we post. If that is the case then Power Bi will not sell in the market.

    Is this a static page or someone ever reviews ? if static ,I would suggest killing this page and give back folks time so that they don't waste time in creating idea request

    The reports just randomly failed to refresh due to the "Performance Throttling", and every single time, I have to disable the scheduled refreshes and wait for at least an hour for refresh to failed. I need this function to just simple terminate a refresh that going to fail anyway.

    I need this as today morning one report is stuck without end with scheduled refresh. I do not know how to stop and refresh it again. Also do not know why this is stuck.
