Is it possible to schedule a dataset refresh by a dependency on something outside of PBI? For example, I have a dataset that I don't want refreshed until a certain SQL job runs. That SQL job usually runs on Monday afternoons. But, it could run on Tuesday. However, in the PBI service, I only have options for daily or weekly refreshes. So, currently, as my workaround, I have the report refresh daily.

Hi @Anonymous
You could do this by using the Power BI REST API which you can call to refresh a dataset.
I actually use Power Automate these days where I look for a specific email from my SQL Server when the job completes. When I receive this email Power Automate then refreshes the dataset.
