I am trying to schedule a refresh but see the following error:
This dataset includes a dynamic data source. Since dynamic data sources aren't refreshed in the Power BI service, this dataset won't be refreshed. Learn more: https://aka.ms/dynamic-data-sources.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Best option: Don't have dynamic data sources with native queries
Second best: Hide the dynamic data sources from the Formula Firewall by inlining the queries into the same Power Query partition

Thanks! What is considered a dynamic data source, and I'm unsure of where to find the cause.
