Enable Incremental Refresh for Power BI Pro users, not just Premium.

RE: incremental refresh for Power BI Pro

Yes it is. But you have to use advanced editor. The way I did this was to first load data from an input file into a table. Then I created a second query that loads data from that newly created table. Then I used advanced editor to change the first query in start with the steps from the first query and append the results. And you can avoid duplicate rows by creating a new column with some sort of compound key from your various columns (and later remove this column if you want, once dups are removed).

Yes really need this, as my data loads are way to large to pull the whole thing every refresh.

RE: incremental refresh for Power BI Pro

Is it possible to add incremental load functionality to Power Query? Pull and load just new or changed rows from source system
