Expression Error

Hi,

I have recently set up a scheduled refresh in Power BI Service and over the past few days I am getting the below message:

 

There was an error when processing the data in the dataset.

Data source error: Expression.Error: We cannot convert the value <ccon> null to type Text..</ccon>.  The expression was raised by the IDataReader in. 

I refreshed the dashboard in PowerBI Desktop, but I am not getting the above message.

 

The data source for the dashboard is a SharePoint page.

 

Looking guidance on how to resolve issue.
