What do you mean "I have realized that it fails about 70% of the time when posted online."
Is this an on-prem SharePoint server?

How would your data not be posted "online?"

    I meant when the power BI dataset is posted online. So I was meaning I can refresh it on desktop mode.

      Ok. The sporadicness of the fail is what is puzzling. Are you mashing it up with any other data? I wondering if the permission levels (private, organizational, etc.) are off, but that only matters if 2+ sources.

       

      Any more details on the error in the service?

        I have three different sources in the data set. They are all set to Organization permission levels and signed in under me. Two sources are from the same sharepoint site one of which is the Excel document posted on sharepoint causing this refresh error. The third source is from a different site that seems to have no issues.
