"File Published but Disconnected” Error When Publishing Power BI Report
Hello, I've did exactly what you've mentioned in your post (I've wrote about it as well in my previous posts) and it did not help.
I'm not using on-prem, datasources were mapped and problem occured both on personal connector and other created specific for this issue.
I was able to resolve the issue the problem is how.
There was a Data Activator created on top of the report/app I was using. Removing Data Activator completely, get rid of this issue. Do you know why?
Community SupportHi mati_gouda ,
That “File published, but disconnected” message usually means Power BI couldn’t match the data sources in your PBIX file with the ones already set up in the service. It’s a common issue, and luckily easy to fix. After publishing, go to the workspace where your report is, open the dataset settings, and check the “Gateway and cloud connections” section. There, make sure each data source is properly mapped. For cloud sources like SharePoint or Fabric Dataflows, you might need to click “Recreate cloud data sources” if any of them look blank or broken. If you’re using on-prem data, double-check that it’s linked to the right gateway. Once everything’s mapped, hit Apply and try a manual refresh. If that works, you can set up your scheduled refresh again and the disconnected message should go away.
If the response has addressed your query, please Accept it as a solution and give a 'Kudos' so other members can easily find it
