Dynamic data source Error while Power BI dataset refreshing

Hi all,

 

I have converted Sharepoint Images into binary format using the following code in Power Query Editor.

Web.Contents([IMAGE_1_FINAL])

Eg: IMAGE_1_FINAL: "https://abc.sharepoint.com/sites/Demo/Shared%20Documents/Building.jpg"

 

But when I refresh the Power BI dataset, Its throwing the dynamic data source error like below

Please help me to fix this issue.

 

Regards,

Barathi Raja

Hi @barathirajavi55 ,

 

The problem is that the Power BI service wants to validate the URI before it commits to refreshing the data source.
