At the moment there is possibility to setup refresh interval in Azure SQL database advanced option, but minimal refresh interval is 15 minutes. Fir some situations it’s not enough – 2-3 minutes would be much better.
I know that using REST API it’s probably possible to get refresh rates we need, but it requires additional work and if data is already in Azure SQL database, it’s weird to use REST API to push it into Power BI.
If more frequent refreshes disallowed due to higher resource consumption, let’s create another pricing option “Power BI Pro+”, which allows 2-3 minute refresh intervals and also bigger data model (up to 500 MB).

Best Regards,
Mati

Its better to get automatic refresh data within each & every seconds for live reports maintainence
