Cannot publish the report from PowerBI Desktop

I have a published report which was Published to PowerBI Service and the report link was shared to everyone across the Organization.  I had to do some changes to the published report and made those changes in PowerBI desktop. 

 

Now, when I'm trying to publish the same report after the changes but It gives the following error. I cannot delete the report and publish again because that will change the report link which was shared across the Org. Kindly help me in fixing this. I've turned off all scheduled refreshes related to the dataset and tried to publish the report but still the same error appears. Kindly advise. 

 

 "A Dataset or report named "XXXXXXXXX" already exists and is set up with cloud refresh. You can save this file with a different name and publish again."

Hi Thanks for your response @amitchandak 

 

I have already removed all the scheduled refresh on the dataset and the associated dataflows. But still the same error popsup when I'm trying to pubish the report from PowerBI Desktop. 

 

Is there anyway around?

@phkumar , From three dots on the dataset, go to setting, delete any schedule you see there. Click on refresh history and check no refresh is running.

 

Also, check you are Member or admin of the workspace
