Changing dataset without changing report link
Hi. I'm not sure if I got you. Let me tell you about the default behaviour in Power Bi Service to keep the same link. For example: you create a power bi desktop dataset/report and publish to a workspace A. If you then modify de file and publish again in the same workspace it will ask you to replace and maintain the same URL. It won't keep the same URL if you change the name of the file, change the name of the dataset in Service or publish to a different workspace.
I hope that helps,

Hi, I still have an issue. I dont want the App URL to change. When publishing the pbix report with some changes I can klick replace but than it says :"A dataset or report named xyz already exists and is set up with cloud refresh. You can save this file with a different name and publish again."
But by renaming and using the new one in my Power App I would change the url again.
Is there a clever solution for updating the report with the semantic model without having to change something in the app?
