Power BI Auto Refresh

Periodically refresh any Power BI report or dashboard

Power BI Auto Refresh is a Chrome extension designed to simplify the process of keeping your Power BI reports and dashboards up-to-date. With the ability to set customizable auto-refresh intervals for any report, users can ensure they are always viewing the latest data without manual intervention.

Each report retains its own refresh settings, which can be easily turned on or off, providing flexibility across multiple reports or dashboards. Version updates have expanded functionality to include dashboard refresh support and improved compatibility with the latest Chromium Edge releases, alongside bug fixes for enhanced reliability.

Can this please get updated for the new version of Edge? I really liked this extension.

Looks like the latest version of Edge, version 116.0.1938.54, broke this extension. It doesn't render well and users are unable to select the auto-refresh time

Extension safety

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Power BI Auto Refresh requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that an Edge add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Edge add-on reputation on Edge Add-on Store, the amount of time the Edge add-on has been around, and other signals about the Edge add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing an Edge add-on.

Power BI Auto Refresh has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
