Get Dataflow Refresh Schedule from Power BI REST API

[AnthonyMCUBI]

Hi everyone,

I'm using the Microsoft.PowerBi.Api Nuget package in my C# project, and I'd like to receive my dataflows' refresh schedules using that package's API. I see that it is possible to retrieve refresh schedules for datasets, but I don't see a similar action for dataflows. Is this possible at the moment, and if not, is it planned for the future?

Link to REST API Dataset - Get Refresh Schedule endpoint.

Link to Microsoft.PowerBi.Api Github repository.

Thank you,

Anthony

Has anyone figured out how to retrieve the refresh schedule? 

It seems like there should be a better level of consistency between datasets and dataflows.  I'm definitely spending a lot of time spinning my wheels on the dataflow API.

If you have permission for it, there is an admin api call that will get you the refresh schedule and average duration for anything that is refreshable within a Capacity (only for datasets/flows in premium in some capacity):

Otherwise you'd need to use data from get-dataflow-transactions and infer scheduled refresh times

Hi @v-easonf-msft ,

I did see the linked Dataflow REST API, but did not find an appropriate function for my purpose. I did test UpdateRefreshSchedule, but it does not allow me to receive the current refresh schedule configuration so it isn't a solution to my issue.

Anthony

Hi @AnthonyMCUBI - did you manage to find a way to return the configured refresh schedules ?

It is recommended to create a support ticket in Power BI support for further help.
