    Hi Anonymous 

     

    Make sure you are using the web link of the SharePoint,

    after replacing the data source --> close and apply in Power query --> check it load and try refreshing manually in Power BI Desktop.

    if all ok then publish into Power B service.

     

    it will work.

      Hi mohammedadnant ,

        My main issue is to others people refresh or update the report.

        Is it possible without premium licence ?

        I have design a dashboard from local folder and after change folder to sharepoint to permit my collegues to update report.

        When I use, it work properly but when my collegues refresh, it say that it can access to my local file that i already move to sharepoint.
