Dataverse Connector Display Name Change
Hi Ksven ,
The display names are applied at the model level, so you will continue to see the original system names in the query editor. This also means that if you rename fields with display names in the Query Editor, that change will not be visible in the model (as the display names are applied on top of it). If you want to rename fields with display names, you’ll need to make that change in the model.
If display names change in Dataverse, all your reports will continue to work. Refreshes will continue to run, and you won’t need to change anything in your report. For the new display names to appear in the report, you’ll just need to do a schema refresh in Power BI Desktop and republish.
Here is a document which may be helpful to you. Please reference it.

Hi v-xiaosun-msft ,
thank you for your reply! Have a look on my screenshot, its your recommended article 🙂
My issue is not to understand where I need to change my column name in Power BI.
Like described in article:
"For the new display names to appear in the report, you’ll just need to do a schema refresh in Power BI Desktop and republish."
...its definitely not working! Like described, I've changed Display Names in Dataverse, published customizations and have refreshed Schema in Power BI Desktop, also 24h after publishing, no Display Name Change in Power BI Desktop.
I guess for now there's no impact of changed Display Names in Dataverse in Power BI. I guess there's only first load setting display names. So its a bug or?
