Hello everyone, I have a question about a power query refreshing error. The error message states
"the query references other queries or steps, so it may not directly access a data source. Please rebuild this data combination."
Strangely, after clicking refresh again, the error disappears, and I'm able to refresh the data successfully. However, the issue reoccurs when I close the workbook and try to refresh it again.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @CupidC
I think the issues might be due to the privacy level setiings.
Try setting the privacy level to "none", this might resolve the isssue.
