Hello,
I'm having issue with refreshing pivot tables using Excel Online.
The pivot tables are built using data model with data source from the tables in existing workbook.
When I refresh manually using "Refresh Selected Connection" it works perfectly.
But when I refresh using office script, it doesn't work.
Any help, please!
Hi, @PBIX MM
Your question is related to scripting, and I'm in charge of Office General. It is recommended that you wait for a reply from the relevant expert.

Hi, @PBIX MM
Currently, Power Query and pivot table refresh is not supported for Office Scripts. We track Office Scripts feature requests here: http://aka.ms/ExcelSuggestions. It looks like this feature has already been requested by others: https://feedbackportal.microsoft.com/feedback/idea/29b33e9d-262e-ec11-b6e6-00224827bbc2. Please upvote this existing request as these requests are considered when we go through our planning process.
Thanks,
The Office Scripts team
Hi @Petra Ronald ,
Thank you for your information.
Actually, I tried to refresh the data using Power Pivot sourcing the data from the same workbook ( by inserting data from SQL DB through Power Automate & Graph API at a scheduled time ).
The data is already there in the workbook and just need to populate in the Pivot Tables after refresh.
It works perfectly if I press "Refresh Selected Connection" but the recorded Office Script doesn't work as expected.
So, I don't think it's because of current limitations with Refresh option as Power Query was not used in this context.
And even if I use PQ, it should be fine as you can find PQ refresh is now available for selected data sources here.
Best,
PBIXMM
