Hi @HeirsPowerBi ,

According to your description, I suggest you follow the below steps:

1.Clear the permissions in data source settings in Dekstop and clear the browser cache.

2.In Desktop, in the datasets list, choose a dataset and find it in the Service.

3.In Service, check if you can create report on the selected dataset. If can not, what's the error message.
