Chrome Extension to auto refresh Power BI report.

Chrome Extension to auto refresh Power BI report. Requirement  :  Power BI report will be visible on monitor/projector and team will monitor it live. Report needs to refresh on it's own every 5 seconds. Power BI : We created report with SQL direct query so report shows current data when accessed or clicked refresh on report. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/desktop-use-directquery Solutions : #1 :  Refresh full page every x seconds https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/auto-refresh/ifooldnmmcmlbdennkpdnlnbgbmfalko?hl=en-US Issues with above solution : Extension refreshes full page (browser refresh) so screen becomes blank for second(s).
