Need help. I am not an IT person just someone trying to take data and look at it in power bi. I work for a small company and am not a Pro user. I am just taking data and putting it on Onedrive. and refreshing it to power BI. The data is refreshed automatically for a week or two and then I get an email saying "Onedrive refresh disabled". I then have to rebuild the dataset. There is nothing that changes expect it stops pulling the data. I have checked the data and it is up to date but just does not refresh. Here is the email I get

I am not an IT perrson but just a person trying to take data and look at it in powerr BI. I am not a pro user (free version). I am putting the data directly into Onedrive so I go not have a complicated gateway. Anyhow the data looks great for about 2 weeks and then I get an email saying that "Onedrive refresh disabled". At this point the data is being updated on onedrive but no long updates in powerr bi. I can not even do a manual update in power bi and when I look at the datset in BI the onedrive refresh is turned off. So I turn it back on, but it does not update. Please help as the only thing I know to do is delete the dataset, dashboard and start again. Here is the email message I get.

I can confirm that nothing changed
I only get the email saying that the refresh is disabled. I then go back into the dataset online and click "enable" but on the next hourly refresh it moves back to disabled.
Should I be using the desktop power BI or is this a problem with the free power BI.
Thanks for your suggestion
I am using the power bi web version to connect to onedrive
