Hi Everyone,
I have a doubt about how Appen works, for example i have a data "A" and "B" and i use the Appemd tool to make a new table "Data C" and all my visualizations will be created with the "Data C", however i need to refresh the data "B". So for this update to be showed in the "Data C" do i need to refresh the "Data C" also? Because sometimes looks like i dont need to do it and sometimes it doesnt refresh the information so i have to refresh it.
Solved! Go to Solution.
You should only have to refresh Table C. Because that is an append of A & B it will refresh those sources. I put together a test append then added records and refreshed only my append table:

What if i dont want data "A" be refreshed? Can i do something about this?
Refresh Data C.
When you refresh a table, it checks dependencies on any other table that is referenced, and will refresh those as well.
It sounds like Tables Data A and Data B are not needed in the model, they only need to exist in Query Editor so that Data C is created properly. Have you disabled load to the data model for these tables?
Right click on Data A in Query Editor. Make sure that "Include in Report Refresh" is checked and "Enable Load" is NOT checked. Do the same for Data B.
Data C should have BOTH checked.
Now, when you refresh Data C, everything will happen as planned.

So tables A,B,C will be refreshed?
Have you disabled load to the data model for these tables?
Nope, but i dont use the refresh button i just manually refresh the tables i need from the Fields Panel
Right click on Data A in Query Editor. Make sure that "Include in Report Refresh" is checked and "Enable Load" is NOT checked. Do the same for Data B.
I did this once and the information of data "A" dissapeared and same thing happened for the info of data "A" that was on data "C"
