Hi @v-yanjiang-msft 

 

Thank you for the update and quick turn around on this one. I refreshed one of our impacted datasets using the V-NET, and it works fine now. I will check for the other datasets as well and update in case I see any issue.

 

Thank You!!

I have started to see this issue since last night (5th May),  my datasets contect to an Azure Serverless sql database. Some of the reports do not use a gateway (as it is not required for this type of data source) yet are seeing this error message, its also not consistent as to which table it fails on.

 

When i refresh the report in the desktop app I am not seeing an issue

 

Please advice how I can get my reports to refresh again

Hi @v-yanjiang-msft We are experiencing similar issue since 06/05/2023, my datasets connected to Azure serverless sql database. we do not use Gateway for the same.

 

The report refresh works alright in desktop.

 

Please advise.

We are also experiecing the same error as @chavanr under a similar scenario. The errors began late Friday (UTC+8) and continues today.

We use the dynamicss 365 synapse connector to replicate to a serverless SQL database and access this from Power BI. Power BI is reporting this error in both Import and Direct Query mode.

@Mixednuts Please raise a ticket with MS support because my ticket is now sitting with the Product team.
