Hello Anonymous 

 

My problem still persists.

And to be honest, I think SharePoint Online is not supported for scheduled refresh in the Power BI Report Service on-promise.

 

There are many similar problems here in the community, and none of them have worked. So many users have tried in various ways and still haven't succeeded. It's really strange.

 

Our friend d_gosbell  said it's not possible.

"As documented here, Power BI report data sources in Power BI Report Server - Power BI | Microsoft Learn, SharePoint Online is not supported for scheduled refresh."

Could someone from Microsoft confirm?

 

Thank you.

    Hi Fernandostn ,

    SharePoint Online is not supported for scheduled refresh in Power BI Report Server.

    Since this appears to be a limitation and you’ve already tested multiple approaches, I’d recommend opening a Microsoft Support ticket so the product team can confirm and review your specific environment in detail.

    Please refer below link on how to raise a contact support or support ticket.
