    Hi Khushboobarai 

     

    It works in Power BI Desktop because it’s using your local access to the Blob container (public URL / Storage Explorer context). That access does not exist in Power BI Service.
    Power BI Service has no authentication to Azure Blob Storage, so it can’t refresh on its own.
    Reconnect Power BI to Azure Blob Storage using a proper authentication method (SAS token, storage account key, or Azure AD).

    Please check this link for your reference - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-query/connectors/azure-blob-storage

     

    If this post helps, please accept this as a solution. Appreciate your kudos.

     

    Thanks,
