The current method of setting up scheduled refresh in the Power BI service is clunky and nearly unusable--not to mention an RSI nightmare.
Some better solutions:
--Option for "Refresh every X minutes/hours/days"
--Ability to schedule more frequently
--Powershell to create/update Scheduled Refreshes for Datasets

RE: New way to schedule refreshes
Right now for a 30 hourly refresh I had to add 48 Slots. That is a Lot of wasted efforts
RE: New way to schedule refreshes
Eight refresh events per day is too restrictive for many reporting requirements and doesn't allow reports to be updated hourly during the business day (which seems a reasonable schedule). Sure we have the push API which is great, but that requires development effort and limits reporting agility.
I understand there are processing overheads so maybe we could have more frequent refresh options restricted to smaller datasets?

Need this option
RE: New way to schedule refreshes
I agree... 00 & 30 options are very limited in a busy environment!
