Unable to schedule a refresh for web data source in power bi web

[ganesh_simhadri]

Hi,

I had dashboard with a datasource from web, using power bi desktop i was able to refresh the dashboard. But after publishing the dashboard when I try to schedule the refresh i was getting the following error .  Can anyone help what I can do there ? TIA.

Could you please share more details about the data source configuration in your scenario?

By default the schedule refresh would work for all online data sources that could be connected directly through Power BI Desktop, please check the list through the following article:

Schedule Refresh

Things to note is:

If you have deifned function parameter within the connection string, then Schedule refresh will not work.

See the following idea for more details:

Make functions refreshable when the data source is a parameter of the function

Hi , Yes i am using parameters with in the connection string , is there any way i can schedule refresh ?

[v-micsh-msft]

Currently not.

Unless you remove the function defined in the Connection string.

Another workaround is to use the Query Parameter instead of the custom Function.
