Dataset has failed to refresh

Sometimes i have scheduled refresh error. If I do manual refresh it works fine. It seems to be a PowerBI service issue. Any way to overcome this problem? is there any way to tell if there was an error running the refresher again?

 

the error :

Unable to connect to the data source...


...  has failed to refresh.
Failure details: The last refresh attempt failed because of an internal service error. This is usually a transient issue. If you try again later and still see this message, contact support.
Next refresh for ... is scheduled for April 1, 2022 6:30 UTC.

based on error message it seems the connection between your data source to PowerBI web/gateway has been intrupted during the schedule refresh

This happens due to inconsistent network connection, if this is happening regularly you need to get in touch with your network team to check the connectivity
