You have a Fabric workspace that contains a set of Dataflow Gen2 queries. You plan to use the native Dataflow Gen2 refresh scheduler to configure the queries to refresh as often as possible. What is the fastest refresh interval that can be configured?

• A. 20 minutes
• B. 30 minutes
• C. 1 hour
• D. 2 hours

Answer: (B)

The fastest cadence you can set for Fabric’s Dataflow Gen2 with its native refresh scheduler is 30 minutes. This minimum interval is enforced to balance resource use across many dataflows and maintain overall system stability. A 20-minute refresh isn’t supported, and intervals of 1 hour or 2 hours simply refresh less often. So 30 minutes is the smallest, most frequent option available. If you need fresher data than every 30 minutes, you’d need to explore alternative approaches outside the standard native scheduler, such as other real-time or near-real-time data ingestion patterns.
