Hi,
I've recently created a test report to see if Incremental Refresh works with PBI Pro connected to MS Blob Storage. The data is imported as .parquet file. There are two reports (exactly the same ones but one with Incremental Refresh and one with just Scheduled refresh).
The problem is that once the new data is loaded to the blob storage, the one with Incremental Refresh did not load the new data but the Scheduled Refresh report did. The steps I took to confiure Incremental Refresh are:
1. Imported the .parquet from the blob storage
2. Created RangeStart and RangeEnd parameter
3. Since there is no date/time column (but DateID column formated like 20210804), I've created a function that converts RangeStart and RangeEnd to match the ID column format
4. Filtered the DateID column and applied RangeStart and RangeEnd as the range
5. Implemented Incremental Refresh Policy for the table
6. Published it and set the Scheduled Refresh
Currently the data shown in the report is for 20210717 - 20210724, and after the refresh it should have changed to 20210717-20210725 but it only shows the data 20210717 - 20210724.
My Questions are:
1. Am I doing something wrong in the steps to configure IR? Do I need Scheduled Refresh set up if the Incremental Refresh is defined before Desktop?
2. I see the warning sign when applying IR. How could I check if query folding does take place? Could this be why it's not working?
