Hi ,
I have created a powerbi report using excel data. When I overwrite the data with new data in the excel workbook and do a refresh in powerbi desktop, the refresh appears to work successfully- no error messages- but that data does not change- still displays the old data. Any ideas as to what could be wrong?
Solved! Go to Solution.
@avigilan,
Do you click Refresh button in Report view or Query Editor of Power BI Desktop? If you disable "Include in Report Refresh" option for your table in Query Editor and click Refresh in Report view of Power BI Desktop, data will not be changed in Power BI report.

I'd check:
Hi Ross,
I checked all of those things you mentioned- everything appears it should work correctly. When I load the data, there are no error messages, however when I try to view the data nothing displays-odd

This was exactly what solved my problem. I have 60 data fields and could not explain why some were not refreshing after pressing "Refresh". Thank you!
