How to update data model after incremental refreshed implemented
I do. I am also getting an error when I try to overwrite the report, which is what I normally do. I have opened ticket so I'll see what support says.
What error are you getting? It just so happens i just published a incremental refresh dataset and i'm getting weird errors too (couldn't refresh your dataset, couldn't fetch an report url etc.) so it might be a wider issue.
It doesn't give me an error code or anything. I just get the screenshot shown above, that the report already exist. I have never seen that message before ever. I am usually just asked if I'm sure I want to overwrite it.
Oh i'm so sorry Anonymous , i misunderstood completely.
Your issue is as follows. You are trying to publish the downloaded file, which only has the connection to the power BI dataset, under the same name as the dataset. Power BI doesn't allow that (rightly so), since it would overwrite the original dataset.
What you need to do is get access to the original dataset .pbix (where the incremental refresh is set up) and edit that file with whatever you need changed. Then you can publish it again.
Also, please note you can't download datasets anymore once you've set up incremental refresh or modified through the XLMA endpoint. This is a limitation due to the partitions made when setting up incremental refresh. See here for more info.
