Scheduled Refresh Error
- 8 years ago
While working with a helpful Microsoft employee, we found an entry in a log file that permissions were needed on a subdirectory inside the powerbi dir. Once this was granted to the service account things are working.
Is the same dataset able to be refreshed using Power BI desktop?
Yes, the refresh works on PowerBI Desktop.

Any ideas? I have attached the error we get. This was not happening in the Oct 2017 release. We are having this issue with the March 2018 version.

You might be able to get some detail on the underlying error using a query similar to the one mentioned in this post
It might at least point you in the right direction. Trying to daignose this stuff form the web log files is just painful.

Thanks for the suggestion. The subscription is not able to be created, so I don't think any history ends up in the table. I had to modify that script for 2012 as it doesn't have any JSON functions, but there were no data refreshes with a LastStatus <> 'Completed
data refresh'.
