    I think I stumbled onto the solution. Pressing "Refresh All" on the Preview in Power Query appears to resolve the problem.

    "Refresh all" did not help in my case. The issue was that the names of the query groups (just the groups you make in Query Editor) were changed. Resetting these to the original names fixed the issue. That leaves me with the old - less clear - query group names, but at least there is no error anymore... Very weird that changing the group name is not covered by PowerBI...

      This resolved my issue as well. Not very helpful as I have changed sources and old group names are indicative of the sourcenames that were being used earlier. But it resolved the issue for now. Thanks for this.

        If you're trying to adjust the name of a table, but that table is referenced in a union, you'll get this error as well. 

         

        The fix is to:

        1. Remove the table from the union reference 

        2. Adjust the name of the table referenced in the union

        3. Re-reference the table in the union once more

         

        Solved my issue.
