Super UserHi there, that should work.
Have you tried to modify the source path and remove the "\" once it has been uploaded to the Power BI Service and see if that works?

Advocate IGilbert, thanks for the reply. I have not tried the parameter idea, I will explore it, thanks for the tip.
On your first thought, I'm not sure how to moidfy the source path once the file has been uploaded to the Service, can you tell me how to do that? The report is pointing to the embedded dataset, which is where the data source errors must be. I can't find away to modify the data source path within the uploaded dataset.
