Clear all cached data on Refresh (SSAS Tabluar report, Connect Live)

We have a report with multiple pages that uses a Live SSAS Tabular data source. It seems that data is cached in the PowerBI Service and users need to click refresh on each sheet to get the latest data. A "refresh" should clear all cached results so users see a consistent view of the data on all pages.

Yeah I encounter the same problem.

It gets even more confusing when RLS is used and changes are made to role assignments. I've even seen situations where hitting refresh multiple times switches between old data and new data and back to old data. Very weird.

I have exactly the same problem and it's a little confusing to have a mixture of old and new results depending on what was cached and what filters are chosen.
