DirectQuery - Changed connection results in Amibiguous Paths

I'm developing a PBI in which 3 AAS-models are combined on a DirectQuery modus.

Today I've downloaded Power BI Desktop's last version (june 2021). In this version, I have a problem when I change the connection (from by example develop-source to production-source). The message I receive is "Failed to save modifications to the server. Error returned: 'There are ambiguous paths between... <fact-table> and <dimension-table>".

It seems that, by changing the connection, a new AAS-model is loaded. Actually, I expect here only a changed connection of the existing AAS-model.

I've fixed it; just by creating a new PBIX and connect again on DQ-modus to the AAS-models. The old PBIX was initially created on the february 2021 update.

Hi , @pieterf ;

I'm sorry that I haven't encountered this kind of error, and I don't understand what you mean very much. Can you share screenshots of the error and more details?
