We are making a business decision on this feature alone! This should be a must in DirectQuery reports!

Need this, refresh in import takes a lot a long time. A schedule would be perfect, the refresh could be done overnight.

This not being available is literally the one floor in my new MI landscape, please make the automation of data refresh and upload onto the server from the desktop version available.

RE: Auto refresh data in Power BI desktop

This idea has been posted almost 3yrs ago and I'm pretty sure it may be a great improvement for Power BI: it should be possible to set a timer but also to set the refresh every time the data set is modified/updated

RE: Auto refresh data in Power BI desktop

Yes, being able to auto refresh in Power Bi Desktop would be extremely beneficial. And if possible, it would be nice to be able to refresh at whatever time interval, even if its every 10 seconds.
