Hi rohit1991 ,

Thank You so much for your response, Yes I tried the refresh in a different system with PBI Desktop June 2025 version in that it refreshed without any error. but in my system it is July version. I am not sure if it can be possible that it is happing due to the update or anything else is happning, because to refresh I used same creds and same network, just the difference was PBI Desktop version. 
If the issue is with version only then is it possible to install older versions of PBI Desktop ?

Thanks.

Hi vikramkumawat ,

 

It definitely sounds like this issue is related to the July 2025 Power BI Desktop update, especially since the same dataflow refresh works perfectly on the June version with identical credentials and environment.

 

Yes, you can install an older version of Power BI Desktop:

  1. Uninstall your current version first.

  2. Download and install the June 2025 (or any previous) version from the official Power BI Desktop archive.
