Refresh report data on-demand
On-demand refresh allows report designers to perform a light-weight, rapid refresh of the data used within the current report. Only the minimal number of pipelines required for the measures used in the report will be processed. You may need a model designer to configure your model to support this feature.
Using on-demand refresh
-
Open Refresh data from the Resource Options.
-
If on-demand refresh is supported for this report, the Refresh data option will be available. Otherwise, the listed pipelines will need to be configured by a model designer.
On‑demand refresh can't run while a model process is in progress. To avoid conflicts, schedule essential processing outside of business hours (e.g. overnight or weekends) and use on-demand refresh during the workday when immediate data updates are needed.
Configuring pipelines to support on-demand refresh
-
Open Refresh data from the Resource Options.
-
A list of pipelines necessary for on-demand refresh will be shown. Clicking on the name of a pipeline will open that pipeline in a new tab. The pipelines will need to be configured to adhere to quick processing standards.
-
After making the necessary changes, publish the model. The Refresh data option should now be available in the On-demand refresh dialog.
