| 20 | Using code to mange data refreshes Rather than rely on the PBI gui to set refresh schedules that must be on the half an hour, we can drive refresh with power shell code to shorten the window and avoid traffic jams on busy times.

Discussion
Alyssa Keehan (Unlicensed) - showed the usage report and the fixes she is working on.
Diana Antova - requested a high level usage page: report views over time, Total number of departments, users per department, all over time. Also remove developers activity from the page. Need to find a way to define developers because some users like Tedi are developers and users.
Mark Norstedt - demoed the power shell refresh located at https://github.com/ucsb/ucsb-sa-powerbi/blob/master/PowerShell/PowerBIUcsb/Scripts/Invoke-PBI_DataRefresh.ps1
