Can't change "Data Source" - The button "change source" is blocked
Hello I cannot change data source on Power BI. The thing is that when I open the windows "Data Source Settings", the button "change source" is not usable.
The data I have updated are Excel files.
However, if I go on the advance editor and I modify the path of the data source by hand, the source can be changed. The problem is that I need the people to modify the source via the "file" menu and not by coding.
What's happen? Are there some options in Power BI that block the data source settings?
It could be something in the Excel file?
thank you
Hi Anonymous ,
By my test in the latest version 2.73.5586.1101 of Power BI Desktop, the "Change Source" option works well. You may upgrade the Power BI Desktop to the latest version, and try it again.
