Hi @TimGoodsell ,

 

In both import and direct query modes, the connection type used is immutable by default and depends on the credential information of the data source connected in the pbiRS desktop.

You can try reconnecting to the sql data source in deskop and uploading to the report server, or create this shu directly in the report server.

It should also be noted that direct query mode does not support configuration schedule refresh.

If the problem is still not resolved, please point it out and provide related operation screenshoots. Looking forward to your reply.
