Here is the scenario:
We have a SharePoint list we need to show in Excel Services. So we did the following:
- Export the List to Excel,
- Opened the "owssr.iqy" in Excel and built the pivot table and the graphs in a new sheet we kept the original sheet that brings the data from SharePoint,
- We uploaded the Excel to a SharePoint library and opened in in the browser through Excel Services,
- We added the site and the document library as trusted connection in the Excel Services Service Application,
- The data shows fine but it not refreshing even when we clicked Refresh Selected Connection or Refresh All Connection.
We had to refresh from the physical document and re-upload to the document library which is not a practical solution.
Any help is appreciated.
