Sometimes I want my data model to do a "full refresh," and ignore incremental refresh policies. E.g., when scheduling refreshes in the Service, for each scheduled time, could there please be an option for either incremental or full? And, for dataset refreshes triggered by the Power BI API, could there please be an option to trigger an incremental or full refresh?

The ability to control processing of tables exists today within Premium Per User or Premium capacity backed content via the XMLA endpoint.

We really need this feature - without it incremental refresh is useless, since the data might change once in a while, and a full refresh once a day would solve this issue and speed up our refresh times significantly!

It's been 3 years since this Idea was posted, I hope It will be reality soon. Absolutely essential for Incremental Refresh

Absolutely essential feature to have. If the underlying data for the dataset changes retroactively, there is no method for properly refreshing the PowerBI data.

I need to be able to change a parameter in the PBI service and force a full refresh based on the new setting.

Mandatory option in order to properly use Incremental refresh
