Any tips on searching the Ideas forum?

[Anonymous]

I want to request the ability to schedule the update of a premium capacity-based App, just as I can schedule the refresh of a dataset.  I'd be surprise if I were the first person to submit this idea, however... I tried searching the Ideas forum and it is quite frustrating - I didn't find a request like mine, but have no confidence that I could find it even if there.

I don't want to dilute the voting be having multiple requests... any tips?

thanks,

Dale

@Anonymous Typically you get the best results with getting as specific as possible in a couple words. Why would you want to schedule a re-publish of the app? It seems that it makes more sense to be intentional about what you publish after you make changes, not necessarily on a certain cadence.

Now, if the request was to push a change after a known update, that would make sense, and I'd suggest this idea for an API that would allow me to do that. - https://ideas.powerbi.com/forums/265200-power-bi-ideas/suggestions/20468686-publish-app-via-rest-api

Seth - thanks for asking the "why" question.

I had a misconception about what is published in the App.  I didn't realize that the dataset was shared between the published app and workspace.  Makes perfect sense and simply scheduling a dataset refresh solves my problem.

thanks,
