Composite Model - Cannot delete

Hi, I've got a connection to a powebi dataset. I wanted to test composite modelling. I can't seem to find a way to delete the dataset from my report and it hasn't updated with changes I've made either.

 

Any thoughts on how to delete it?

 

Thanks

Hi, @davehus 

Update :

In the February update, PowerBI added in the ability for you delete DirectQuery connections to Power BI datasets and Azure Analysis Services .

To do so, go to the Data Source Settings dialog, which you can find in the dropdown for “Transform data”.You need to download the latest version of powerbi desktop.

@davehus , if you updated your power bi dataset, then you should be able to get new changes with the refresh.

 

Is that not happening. Which version you are using.

Hi @amitchandak ,

 

No, I can't remove it, it's not refreshing either. I've actually deleted the dataset off the service there and it's made no difference. Version info below...

Hi, @davehus 

PowerBI doesn't support it currently.

This new feature is still in the trial stage, and there are still many shortcomings and limitations.
