    Please provide option to stop refreshing dataset after refreshing manually...

    If there are any performance issues in database this would lock down the table...

    I even observed that reports doesnt get published until the refresh is done...

    Hi Team, any chance this could be implemented?

    Not ideal, but I was able to work around this limitation by restarting the on premises gateway service on the server where it is installed. Stopping the service killed an endless data refresh for me. If you have access and you are okay to kill any other open gateway connections, this could be a workaround until the "kill refresh" feature is built into Power BI online.

    A dataset has been refreshing for hours and i can't kill it. Its terrible! I don't have any tool to do that in Power BI?

    RE: Stop Dataset refresh

    A dataset has been "refreshing" for hours now and I can't kill it. I also can't publish an update to this dataset while this is stuck refreshing. Major showstopper.

    RE: Stop Dataset refresh

    This would be quite helpful. I am currently stuck with a refresh that has been going on since last night (usually takes a few minutes) with no means to stop with causing user interruption.
