Hello,
I have a power bi pro liscence which limits my automatic refreshing to 8 times a day. I read that even if I use Rest APIs I am still limmited to those 8 refreshes. What I am confused about is weather or not it is possible to force more than 8 refreshes programically after embedding my reports in a website/portal or by using Power Bi Embedded for Organization? Is there any other ways to force more than 8 refreshes without upgreading my pro liscence?
Thank you in advance!

Hey @srpeters ,
correct, with a Pro-Workspace, you can only refresh 8 times within 24 hours. If you do them via the REST-API or normal scheduled, doesn't matter, the limit is 8 refreses within 24 hours.
If I remember right, you can put the workshpace in an embedded capacity. Then you have to pay for the capacity in addition, but don't have the limit of 8 refreshes a day.
I think the best solution is if you go with a premium per user license. You don't have a refresh limit and it's not much more expensive than a normal Pro license.
If I remeber right, it's against the terms of service to use an embedded or test-capacity to avoid normal license limits. So I think legally that's not allowed. Maybe keep that in mind.
If you need any help please let me know.
If I answered your question I would be happy if you could mark my post as a solution ✔️ and give it a thumbs up 👍

I definitely do not intend on breaking their TOS, but I thought there could be more ways to get refreshes outside of the Premium liscence. Thank you for your insight and clarification!
