Recent Sources

Hi all,

How can I manage recent sources showing when I open desktop on my computer?

It is still showing old data source I want to delete forever but new one (actual one) is not showing....

Thanks for your help.

Hi @lucie_raboch  - While Power BI Desktop doesn’t currently offer a button to selectively manage the list from the UIOpen Power BI Desktop.

 

  • Go to Home>> Transform data>> Data source settings.

  • In the Data source settings window:

    • You'll see a list of all the data sources Power BI remembers.

    • Select the ones you want to remove and click Clear Permissions or Delete.
