Power BI Report Builder Add Power BI Dataset Connection

Hi,

 

In July I downloaded the new Power BI Report Builder and as per https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/announcing-support-for-non-premium-power-bi-datasets-in-power-bi-paginated-report-builder/ I am sure I was able to right click on the Data Source Folder and the "Add Power BI Dataset Connection" option appeared. 

 

I just went to do this again and was prompted to upgrade, so I have just upgraded and the "Add Power BI Dataset Connection" is no longer appearing - Have others encountered this - what am I doing wrong?

 

My Power BI Report Builder version is 15.0.1425.0

    Hi andrewsimmans ,

    Do you try to use the option of "New"? It also can connect to.  

    If it still can not appear the feature, I think you need to to restart your machine and the Report Builder.
