It has been announced that:
"Creation of streaming models remains enabled until October 31st, 2027. After that date, the creation of new real-time semantic models will no longer be supported , including push semantic models, streaming semantic models, PubNub streaming semantic models, and streaming data tiles."
As I understand it, the new solution relies on Fabric's Real-time Dashboard connecting to an event stream and event house to visualize real-time data. However, the issue lies in the UI—the functionality is quite limited in terms of customization.
Since real-time stream semantic models can no longer be used, it seems that Power BI dashboards cannot support real-time data without manual refreshes (clicking 'refresh').
- Has anyone had experience with functionalities within Fabric, that supports real-time data based on Power BI visuals (reports or dashboard tiles) without requiring Power BI Premium Per User (with the Auto Page Refresh feature)? Or perhaps better experience using the Real-time Dashboard in Fabric with a more visually appealing UI?
OLD - Real-time streaming dataset to Live PowerBI Dashboard (retired solution):
New - Fabric Real-time Intelligence (Fabric) with PowerBI: From Eventstream -> EventHouse -> BUT NO real-time dashboard with PowerBI (you need to manually refresh/or have premium per user with auto page refresh):
The only real-time is Fabrics own Real-Time Dashboard:
Fabric's Real-time Dashboards (just a quick note—not a pretty example) currently lack options for customizing the appearance of tables, titles, cards etc. AND cannot be added to a Power BI App, only available to be added to Fabric's Org App:
Real-time streaming in Power BI - Power BI | Microsoft Learn (Retired solution)
Create a Real-Time Dashboard - Microsoft Fabric | Microsoft Learn (New Real-time Intelligence functionality within Fabric)
