Hello everyone!
I have a dashboard that gets different data from different SQL sources. When I try to refresh all data on the Power BI it works fine, just take quite some time due to the size of the sources. However, when I publish the dashboard and schedule an automatic refresh, it always returns me the same error ORA-00942, each time with a different table.
On the image below, you can see all tables importing data from Redlake. The ORA-00942 hapens most with the "VOLUME" and "VPZ" tables. Keep in mind that except "MARD_ECMF+PLCM", all the other tables have pretty light codes and data sizes.
The image below shows the SQL code I'm using for the "VOLUME" tables. I double tested all codes for all tables before and they work completely fine in the Oracle SQL and when manually refreshing data inside Power BI.
Any idea on how to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance!
Hi ,
Have you tried to repoint the data to a new source? By modifying the M query.
Hi @Anonymous ,
Based on the error description, the table or view does not exist.
Please try to refresh the data manually and see the data if has error.
Then, try to review the semantic model credential.
Besides, make sure the Gateway is correctly configured if connecting to an on-premises database.

Hi @Anonymous!
Thank you for the help.
I tried to refresh the data manually and there was no error. The semantic model credential is also OK, as I use it to other Dashboards and it works fine with the same configuration.
With this, I think the problem is probably some configuration inside Power BI / Query. Do you know if the Data Source configuration (permissions and connections) could be the problem?
Other than that, I have no ideia what could be the solution.
Hi @Anonymous ,
it is possible that the data source configuration leads to the error. Try to review the data source connection before configuring the refresh.
Besides, republish the data and restart configuring schedule refersh to see if the refresh succeed.
