Dashboards Tiles are not refreshing

[Gashaw]

Hey,

I have monthly business report dashaboed created few months ago. I have created dashbaord from the monthly business report. Every month I have to pin tiles, pie or tables to dashboard manually. At this point it is very tedious and time taking to do that every month. How can I refresh the dashbaord automatically when the latest monthly data is available. 

If that is not possible, is there other way that I can do to have the data refreshed automatically. If I can't do this refresh, it is going to be hard to continue using the powerbi. 

Thanks

In this scenario, I think you just need to configure the a schedule refresh on your dataset. And you just need to update data at your data source side. For Dashboard Tiles, we have tile refresh which occurs every 15 minutes. For more details, please see: Data refresh in Power BI

Hi @Gashaw

You should be able to pin items from your report to your dashboard once.

Then once the underlying report dataset gets updated, the dashboard tiles will automatically get updated.

If you are using the On-Premise Gateway and have it refeshing via a schedule your Dashboard tiles will update automatically after the scheduled refresh.

I am doing this with my Google Analytics data and throughout the day I am seeing the dashboard tiles update without me havig to refresh the page.
