dataset connect to onedrive excel

My dataset was created from PowerBI web and connect to excel on onedrive.

If the excel was updated by overwrite, the dataset refreshed well.

 

These days I deleted the file first and put a new one with the same name in the same folder, but the dataset connection seems missed.

 

I could not access Query Editor from PowerBI web and also unable access the dataset and update connection through PowerBI desktop.

How could I re-connect the file or if I would like to connect to another file, how could I do?

    you can connect to the new file in a new query and later copy the connection string to the original query using Advanced Editor

      Hi Stachu , thanks, could you please teach me how to go to the "Advanced Editor" on web BI?

      Thank you very much.
