Hi,
I've had a data flow that is connected to a Sharepoint csv for months without issue and now I'm getting the following error when refreshing the data:
"SharePoint: Request failed: The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred on a send."
I've tried clearing the permissions and reconnected but end up with the same error.
I've also tried uninstalling and reinstalling Power Bi desktop.
The file is not large (5 mb) and I am able to navigate my SharePoint library from within Power Bi.
[EDIT]
Upon further investigation, I found that it succesfully located my CSV file on SharePoint but then fails when retrieving the binary content with a slightly different error message:
"DataSource.Error: The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred on a send."
[EDIT 2.0]
I have managed to extract a more detailed error message:
Unexpected error: The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred on a send.

@clemlanoe , I was also not able to connect to onedrive on the dataflow. Seem like an issue.
Please report an issue too https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Issues/idb-p/Issues
