Hi @nfs03,

In fact, power bi desktop and service are working for different usages. (desktop are reporting design tool, service is used to share created reports)

Comparing Power BI Desktop and the Power BI service - Power BI | Microsoft Docs

It did not auto sync the client reports to the service side. You need to publish the desktop reports to the power bi service side first and configure the corresponding dataset and credentials to enable refresh.

Data refresh in Power BI - Power BI | Microsoft Docs
After these steps, these published report contents will be refreshed based on your configurations.

Hi @nfs03,

Yes, the uploaded pbix file will also be analyzed by power bi service and split based on different parts of models.

@nfs03 , Republish the file-> Clear Browser cache and refresh and check. Hope you are in import mode.

In the case of direct query mode. Got to dataset settings and check credentials have no issues

Hey @nfs03 ,

Have you published your dataset loaded in PBI desktop to service/web?

And how are trying to locate it over web?
