Due to consecutive errors, scheduled refresh has been disabled. Please resolve the error on the data

[jdc3798]

Over the weekend, my refresh was erroring out.  I was able to correct the underlying issue and do a successful manual refresh this morning, however, when I go in to reschedule my automatic refresh, I still see the error, "Due to consecutive errors, scheduled refresh has been disabled. Please resolve the error on the dataset and then re-enable."  I do not see anywhere that I have the option to re-enable the scheduled refresh.  Any help is appreciated.

But why would it error if I have full access and can refresh manually through Power BI Service?  Why doesn't it refresh automatically?

I have followed your steps but still facing this error

Hi  @jdc3798 ,

It could be due to the following reasons:

Your dataset refresh is disabled due to scheduled refresh will also get disabled automatically after four consecutive errors or two months of inactivity for the corresponding report of this dataset. This is as mentioned in this official document:

Configure scheduled refresh - Power BI | Microsoft Learn

To enable the dataset refresh, you can try to open the corresponding report of this dataset to make some visual interaction and use "Edit credential" to update the credential entered for this dataset to make a manual refresh to re-active the scheduled refresh for this dataset:

Accepted solution may be too vague for those new to Power BI services and the Settings menu.

Issue

• Consecutive errors in a report can prompt scheduled refreshes to be "Disabled."
• Although the error has been corrected, an error icon will still appear in the Power BI workspace refresh column and state that Refresh has been Disabled.
• Rescheduling a Refresh is grayed out in the settings.

Solution / How to Enable Fresh

In Settings

Expand "Data Source Credentials"

The connection type will show an error icon.

Click on the "Edit credentials" link

Sign in to reconnect the source credentials.

In the upper right of the Power BI Settings window, a notification will appear (and disappear quickly) that the Data Source has been updated.

Refresh the Settings window in the browser

Expand "Refresh"

Set to "On"

The Semantic model error will have gone away and the report is not set to refresh once again.
