A Desktop version that is updated automatically every few hours

[OmerKat]

Hello everyone,
Which BI desktop version should I purchase that will be automatically updated my report every few hours (two to three hours) and of course how to do it 🙂
Thank you very much

Hi, @OmerKat 

Desktop is available for free download. The latest installation URL is here.

About your automatic report update, you need to confirm whether your report is importing data or querying it directly. You can check the following link first to understand the difference.
