Data update error "Information must be specified to combine data"

Hello everyone When updating data in the Desktop version of Power BI, everything is updated without errors. But in the web version of the service, an error appears when trying to update the dataset. It looks like this:

  •  Error in the data source: {"error":{"code":"DM_GWPipeline_Gateway_MashupDataAccessError","pbi.error":{"code":"DM_GWPipeline_Gateway_MashupDataAccessError","parameters":{},"details":[{"code":"DM_ErrorDetailNameCode_UnderlyingErrorCode","detail":{"type":1,"value":"-2147467259"}},{"code":"DM_ErrorDetailNameCode_UnderlyingErrorMessage","detail":{"type":1,"value":"To combine the data, you must specify the information"}},{"code":"DM_ErrorDetailNameCode_UnderlyingHResult","detail":{"type":1,"value":"-2147467259"}},{"code":"Microsoft.Data.Mashup.MashupSecurityException.DataSources","detail":{"type":1,"value":"[{\"kind\":\"MySql\",\"path\":\"<ip>37.46.130.61</ip>;finolog_data\"},{\"kind\":\"Web\",\"path\":\"https://bhom.ru/currencies/usd/\"}]"}},{"code":"Microsoft.Data.Mashup.MashupSecurityException.Reason","detail":{"type":1,"value":"PrivacySetting"}}],"exceptionCulprit":1}}} Table: finolog_data transactions.

As I understand it, he swears at the data pooling that I have going on in Power Query. But I don't understand what "information" he needs to specify and how to fix this error

Hi @WaykS 

It seems to be a problem related to credentials levels. They should be the same in your desktop file and in the published one. There are several post with different solutions. Take a look: https://community.fabric.microsoft.com/t5/Service/Information-is-needed-in-order-to-combine-data/m-p...
