Hi,
Will anyone know the reason for the below error in dataset refresh?
It is connected to a Sharepoint excel.
Thank you.

Hi,
typically this error message points out that something in the Excel file structure changed. Please review the history of the Excel file for any structural changes. If you cannot convert back to the original structure, please open the dataset in Power BI desktop to perform a refresh of the meta data and any adjustments necessary, and re-publish to the service.
