Excel Script - Refresh data

[PDTaylor]

Hi, 

I have an excel file which has a data connection. I have been trying to get the data and associated pivot tables to refresh through a script but it doesn't seem to work fully. The script is as follows:

function main(workbook: ExcelScript.Workbook) {

  // Refresh all data connections

  workbook.refreshAllDataConnections();

  workbook.refreshAllPivotTables

  }

I am prompting the script to run through PowerAutomate a couple of times a day. The file will appear to be modified (last modified date of file reflects when the script was last run through PowerAutomate) but the data in the Pivot table is not up to date from the data source.

If I open the file online will get a message to enable the queries so I don't know if this needs to be part of the script too?

Any thoughts? 

Thanks

@PDTaylor Currently, pivot table refresh/Power Query refresh is not supported with Office Scripts. If you would like to see this feature in the Office Scripts feature-set, please upvote this request here: Enable Office Scripts to refresh Power Query queries · Community (microsoft.com).

Petra, any other suggestions for how with PowerAutomate/OfficeScripts to 'refresh' a query and pivot table ? Want to get to use PowerAutomate to send the latest info including a refresh.
