Thanks for the reply. But like I said in the first post, I have done it as a dashboard with live tiles and as a report. The dashboard will update numbers only but will not update text/tables. So if you are trying to update live twitter comments which hit my SQL database it doesn't work....
So it's not a live dashboard if it's only for number IMO...
Yes I saw other people comment that pinning the whole report doesn't work (which is also a shame btw). But I have been doing it with the individual tiles which also doesn't work.
I challenge anyone reading this, to get a table to update itself on a live dashboard...it simply cannot be done. So MS PBI is essentially saying the only live dashboard can be numbers only.... great if you happen to manage a local weather station...! 😉
What do you mean by above the live page? I have tried pinning a table as a live tile (individually) and it didn't work unless refreshed manually
Thanks
Feel like we're going round in circles 😉
All of these are pinned as tiles. Try it yourself sometime...! 😉
If you have an SQL database linked directly to a live dashboard, all the numbers will update either live (via push method) or every 15 mins via cache refresh.
The table will say it is refreshed in the tile but the data will not actually be refreshed from my experience unless you click refresh on the dashboard.
I think it's the type of table we are using - I presume yours is fixed? Mine is table of tweets (see below) so they update with time; meaning the length of the table grows and 'created at' has to be sorted to show the latest. So when it updates the screen will not update with the latest comments at the top, even though the data is refreshed.
If I take the sorting off then it won't show the latest comments so renders it useless then! :S
Thanks for ongoing engagement!
I think it does but obviously if you are trying to show the latest tweet or blog post, by not having the ability to sort renders it useless for this purpose
