Dear All,
A colleague created a report referencing a published dataset. (creating this on the Power BI service, not Power BI Desktop.)
then he deleted the dataset and published it again, but when I open the report, I get the following message.
The screen does not change when I press OK and I do not know how to re-bind it. Can anyone help me with a solution?
Thank you in advance.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @umekuro
if the dataset is overwritten then you no need to perform anything but if the dataset is deleted and reuploaded then it will be considered as a new file. You will see a report tagged with the new dataset. Check that report.
You can rebind only using the REST API - https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/power-bi/reports/rebind-report-in-group
Thanks
