collinq The report name is exactly the same, I did not change it at all - no extra spaces. A change to the report itself behaves as you state - asks about the overwrite, etc. Did you try changing the Power BI dataset the report is pointing to, and then republishing? I'm really curious as to what your experience is with this specifically.

Hi Shelley ,

 

Good point - I just tested it.  I duplicated my original data source.  I opened PBI, changed my data source to the new copied version and then published.  I went through the two URL's very closely a couple times.  No difference at all.

I think you will haveto open a ticket since you either have found something unusual or you have encountered a bug of some sort.  Please let us know the result though!
