    Hey @sandeepmooni 

     

    OnVisible is triggered when you Navigate to that page from some other page or opens the app for first time. If you wish to refresh this datasource on the screen, try to Navigate from some other screen or else, you can create a button to refresh this whenever you want.
     
    Hope this Helps!

    Thanks for your response. Is there a way it can autorefresh as soon as the App is opened without having to use a button ?

    Hi @sandeepmooni 

     

    You can place the expression on "OnStart" property of the app. This will refresh the datasource, when the app is opened or refreshed. 
     
    If you wish to refresh data frequently, you can create a timer control and set its visibility to false.
    You can place this expression on the "OnTimerStart" property of the timer control.
     
    Hope this Helps!

    @yashag2255 

    I have set OnStart in App to Refresh(Table1).

    The table is actually an Excel document on Sharepoint.

    It doesnt work though.

    Hi @sandeepmooni 

     

    Is this document present in Document Library? If yes, I am afraid this is not doable currently in powerapps. The file in a document library cannot be used as a valid datasource in canvas apps. You can move the same file to OneDrive and this will create a proper connection between the two.
     
    Hope this Helps!
