Change datasource for report from imported excel to Lakehous(Preview)

Hello, 

 

I want to test if it's possible to change the source from an excel which I imported in PBI Desktop to the same excelfile i loaded with Fabric into my Lakehouse as a table.

 

I tried the following post, but did not work for me.

Thanks
