Hi Anonymous ,

 

You may  download the pbix file from the report page in Power BI Service, then open in Power BI Desktop to make some desired changes. Then republish the pbix to the same workspace.

Hi v-xicai ,

 

thanks for the reply.

I tried that, but a new copy of the report is created after I publish the report, and with the same name.

I don't get the "Do you want to overwrite the existing report?" warning.

 

This is the state of the workspace immediately after I published the updated version of the report (but with the same name):

 

Is this a bug?

 

Thanks and best regards,

Mihael

      Hi Meehael, 
      I am also facing same issue - report not overlapping when we change dataset in live connection and republish. Is any other way apart from API ?
