Power Bi file location shows C:\Users\Username\ and does not show SharePoint Address

I've some files from a netwirk drive to sharepoint and changed the source from the original network location to that of the sharePoint folder however, the connection path is still referring to the C:\users\username\company\sharepointsite\folder and does not allow other users to refresh the datasets.

 

How do I change the path to show the SharePoint folder and not a local user drive without having to remap all tables?

It shows still your C drive. you need to move it to your network so that everyone can access it. somthing start like that \\network\\yoursever\\...

The files have already been moved to the sharepoint site and then mapped to those files, but it still shows C:\

 

Any ideas as to why this is occuring?

Disconnect and reconnect again.
