Hi Anonymous ,

 

There are several solutions for your reference.

1. Please update your Power BI Desktop to the latest version.

2. Check the proper permissions like the image.

    

3. Follow the steps:
    i. Navigate to the workspace using the Power BI Service with your web browser.

   ii. Find your Dataset and look for the "Manage Permissions" option.  You'll find this in the "..." menu.

  iii. Look for your username in the list and check if you have app/build permission. If not, you could select the ... menu on your data row and add build permission.
