Pro license cannot see dataset

Hi, I have a current Pro license in PBI. A coworker has shared a dataset with me multiple times. I keep getting this message: 

We have tried adding me to the workspace where the dataset is located. I still cannot access it.

Permissions have been granted via the App, under the dataset setting 'Security' under the Admin (no restriction) role, and under dataset setting 'Manage permissions' with 'App, Build' specified".

    The only setting needed is the Dataset Permissions of "Read, Build".  You do not need access to the Workspace.

     

    Do you see the Dataset listed as an option when trying to create a Report either from Service or in Excel?

  • Hey Cassidy, thanks. I do not see the dataset as an option when creating a report from Service. Incidentally, I don't see ANY datasets in my org. Here is a screenshot:

     

    I am not sure how to see it from Excel. I don't have the desktop version of PBI.
