Can't schedule refresh or configure data source settings
Hi Anonymous ,
Kindly check if you have the necessary permissions on the semantic model to modify the data source credentials.
In addition, you could consider republishing the report and then configuring the gateway and credentials directly in Power BI Service.

Hi! I am by no means a power user, but this has happened to me before and the issue was that I had a data source to an excel file on my desktop that I needed to delete. I think it wanted me to create a gateway to my computer before it would let me do anything else... once my only data source was my APIs, I was able to configure the data sources in Service the way I needed to...
Thanks for your reply! I don't have any local files in the setup, only SQL and BigQuery. Apparently re-publishing the report in the app yestterday without any other changes solved it, i could access data source credentials today (it was greyed out before) and configure them, and the refresh (or schedule refresh config) worked from pbi service this time. Copilot did suggest that sometimes, you just have to wait a bit after publishing your report in the app, because service options only become available some time after. Weird but hey /shrug
