Can't remove table from Direct Lake dataset because error "We couldn't add or remove tables"

Hi!

I have a Power BI Direct Lake dataset and I've made changes (added one column) to one of the tables included in the data model. I try to remove that table from the dataset using Web modeling experience's Edit tables, to make the dataset reflect the change as instructed here: 

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/enterprise/directlake-overview#known-issues-and-limitatio...

 

When I click Confirm, I get error:

"We couldn't add or remove tables

The current operation was cancelled because another operation in the transaction failed.
COM error: System.Core, Value cannot be null.
Parameter name: source.
Please try again later or contact support. If you contact support, please provide these details"

 

Is this a known problem and is there a way to recover without having to build a new dataset?

 

Best,

Antti

Yes that is the documentation I'm referring to. When I deselect the table and confirm, I get error and cannot delete the table from model.

This looks like a bug to me. is there any update on this? from what i can see at the moment, there is no way to update the sources of a semantic model and keep your Power BI alive which is connecting via Direct Lake.
