Q & A time delay with line chart

[selimovd]

Hello all together,

we received strange behavior with the Q&A feature.

I showed a business user how to use the Q&A feature for the latest received data ("last 5 minutes") as a card, because this you can't show with a usual report.

The user created now a dashboard and also used line charts with the Q&A feature. The problem is the line charts over the last 6 hours doesn't update properly.

Sometimes the last hour is missing, sometimes just 30 minutes are missing. The values are definitely in the dataset as the reports refresh properly.

Why does the Q&A tiles not refresh properly? Does anyone have a tip for that?

Thanks and best regards

Hi @selimovd

I would suggest you to check THIS VIDEO BLOG for the tips on using POWERBI Q&A feature.

@BhaveshPatel thank you, but in the video there was nothing that I didn't know before.

I found out if you change the query from "last 6 hours" to "last 360 minutes" the update works as it should.

It seems that the behaviour of the refresh changes in this case, what is completely not understandable for a business user...

I think Microsoft should change that, as people lose the trust in the platform with things like that.
