    Hi rayishome,

     

    Currently, we are not able to change data source connection string in Power BI service. We have to change it in Power BI desktop via Data Source settings or Power Query in Advanced Editor. Then republish the report to service. As the data source is changed, we need to create a new data source which use the same connection string under data gateway. Then configure the dataset to use this gateway.

     

    For your requirement, you can submit a idea here.

     

    Best Regards,
