Hi @Anonymous
I already konw your question.
If you want to change the data source, please try this:
The easiest way is that change through the Data source setting:
It is the only way of changing data sources through the Power BI report interface.
Open the Power BI desktop, and Click the File > Options and settings > Data source settings.
Choose Data sources in current file, and select your excel data source, and click change Source
Then re-public.
Or you can change the data source in power query, these links may help:
