POWER BI publishing error

Working on refreshing the data of Power BI analysis which has been uploaded to company SharePoint in the desktop version of Power BI. I have tried to publish the analysis after refreshing the analysis but It says "Unable to save document. Access to .... denied". I am neither the owner nor the creator but I still have full access including editing access. Please help ☹️

Hi @Anonymous ,

1. One possible solution is to clear the cache and permissions for your SharePoint connections. Go to File -> Options and Settings -> Options -> Data Load -> Clear Cache under Data Cache Management options. Then, go to Transform Data > Data Source Settings -> Clear permissions for your SharePoint connections. Re-add the connection through Get Data or the Data Source Settings and authenticate.
2. Use the latest version of Power BI Desktop:
Downloads | Microsoft Power BI
