Define "48 refreshes per day"

[sbeste]

I'm evaluating Power BI for my company. I see that Power BI Premium allows "48 data refreshes per day". Is that 48 per user per day or 48 per dataset per day? I ask because I have a warehouse that updates 70 workbooks once a month, all at the same time. Over the course of a month, that's pretty low usage. But is this 48 limit going to let me do the 70 all at once?

Thanks - Steve

Hi @sbeste,

With Power BI Premium capacity, up to 48 refreshes can be scheduled per dataset per day. 

Do you want to use all the 70 workbooks in the same dataset, or separately? If they're in the same dataset, they will be refreshed together at a scheduled time.

Thank you! That's the answer I was hoping for. The limit of 48 is not going to be a problem for me. Not even close.

Actually, the 70 workbooks cover many topic areas - employees, sales, customer inquiries, and so on. So they mostly each have a unique dataset. That puts me even further away from this limit of 48.

Thank you for the clear reply!
