I got this error while refreshing PBI service data set with Azure SQL database connection.
Please help
hi, @Aamir991
It seems that there is something wrong in Azure sql database.
You may try to download the pbix file and open it in power bi desktop.
Then refresh it in power bi desktop to check which data source is error, and adjust it then republish it.
here is a similar post, please try it.
