Error when performing consecutive Refresh

hi 

I have a dataset created with multiple tables inside it.

When I refresh the 1st time, it has no issue.

However, when I tried performing a refresh immediately, it gives me an error message.

I tried clearing my cache before refreshing the 2nd time but the same error happens.

The Error Message is like this - "Query references other queries or steps, so it may not directly access a datasource. Please rebuild this table combination.

 

This problem does not happen when i upload into my workspace.

Can someone help me understand where is the problem and how to resolve it ?

 

Thanks

Please explain in more detail what your process is.  Be aware that if you are trying to ask for another refresh while a refresh is in progress you will be put in the doghouse (ie at the end of the queue). If you try that repeatedly you'll be yelled at by the service.

hi '

I completed a desktop refresh and after its completed, i did another round of refresh after clearing the cache and get the error.
