Resolver IIINew data set created for each uploaded report
AnonymousMichiel As of April there is a solution for this. After you deploy your initial report to the Service, you can then create your next report from that deployed dataset. Essentially, the Desktop connects to the Live Connection (model) and you can deploy more reports to the Service utilizing the same dataset. Accomplishing the "single datasource for many reports" process. I didn't think this worked for live connections initially, but I just tested it and it works as expected. Details here
Hi Anonymous.
For some reason my original replay has disappeared from the thread!
My reply explained how I had tried (and failed) the method your link points to. I receive an error when I chose the "Power BI Service" stating "Sequence contains more than one matching element"
I have been trying various work arounds all to no avail, until I thought I would exclude my username from the equation.
As part of the overall infrastructure we user accounts specifically setup for processing our tabular models. I added one of these accounts to an App Workspace as a member.
In BPI desktop I then created a new report, but unlike before, I was not connected to the PBI service with my own credentials, but with the credentials of the afore mentioned service account. I see the list of existing connections as expected.
This therefore points to an issue with my own account. The only thing I can think of is that I used my email address before the business signed up to Azure/Power BI, using the PBI trial. When we then signed up with MS for both Azure an PBI, I initially had issues with my work account and my trial account been seen as 2 separate accounts (I used my work email address when I started the trial).
Are you aware of any issues regarding this?
Thanks in advance
Anonymous In regards to the use account, there can be mismatches in the UPN mapping that could cause problems, but I'm not aware of all the possible things that could go wrong in your scenario. Another thing to try would be to make sure that your user is also a member of the group workspace. I don't recall the specific scenario or if it is still an issue, but there were issues with users who are the owners of the group having issues if they weren't also a member.
Thanks again Anonymous
I am a memeber of the App Workspaces, indeed I created them.
I am now convinced there is an issue with my account as I have successfully created a number of reports, all pointint to existing connections within the PBI service, but in all cases I have not been able to do this with my own account.
I am sure there is an issue with my UPN mapping (of my account), but I have no idea where to look?
