I'm looking to change the Datasource in a Power BI Report, not necessarily the Dataset.

    Hi lreese68 ,

     

    To my knowledge, changing dataset of a report is not possible through service. Only way is to use pbix file in power bi desktop change source and then re-publish.

      I have heard that as well, but I can prove that's not true.
