Add Download link - Paginated Report in Service when "Could not connect to the data source."

Add Download link - Paginated Report in Service when "Could not connect to the data source."

 

Assumption:

a) Build a dataset and using it build a successful paginated report with parameters and make sure it runs.

b) Publish the paginaged report to the service and make sure it runs. All looking great!

c) You have download the .rdl file permissions and you can download .rdl 

 

Before running the report i.e., before submitting the parameters:

After running the report,

All good!

 

Error: Scenario: Paginated Report in Service when "Could not connect to the data source."

Steps To reproduce

1.  Using the same above report dataset, change the data table name or something else, which makes the report will not work

 

2. You will see this error.

3. We are aware that it has to be fixed. But you need to downlad. Now at this stage we cannot download the .rdl 

 

Consider and provide the option!

 

Thanks

 

Can you add the download link or somehow to download the link ... 

 

Thanks

Thank you @v-robertq-msft 

 

Since it is not an idea, more of an issue, posted here. 

 

Initital paginated report does not have any issue.

The issue happens (later) only when the Dataset changes the data table names.

Hi, 

If you want to get a solution for this kind of issue in the Power BI as soon as possible, I suggest you to open a support ticket to get direct help from the technical support team of Microsoft so that they will have a remote session with you to check if this is truly an issue in the Power BI.
