Excel Workbook Refresh Fails in BI Service
Both Schedule and on demand refreshes for Excel Workbooks are failings since saturday 05/12/2018
and now the refreshes are disabled.
Dont understand what Microsoft is doing.
Although Power BI refreshes(using PBIX) are working fine and the gateway does not log any message either.
Below is the message which I am getting, it is not at all descriptive.

I'm seeing the same thing on my end. I didn't make any changes that would cause the refreshes to start failing so suddenly.
I'm really frustrated that there is no recognition of this problem, and there is very little else I can do to troubleshoot the problem.

same error message here,
I'm using to a powerquery excel workbook stored on a SharePoint Online document library, which queries data from a SharePoint Online List.
Power BI service is using 'Connect, manage, and view Excel in Power BI' option to connect to the excel workbook.
"Workbook refresh failed. See details for more information."
