Refresh data failure on [https://msit.powerbi.com/] after publishing dataset from Desktop

Dear community members,

I have a dataset which worked very well for from March.2020. Today, after downloading the latest .pbix file, changing some code (only change some characters) and successfully refreshing the data in my local PB desktop, I clicked 'Publish' to replace the original dataset. Then I found the dataset failed to refresh on the service portal.

Here are the error messages:

Unforutnately, I cannot find any useful clue about what's wrong with my code in these error messages. 

Here is the link for my dataset and my PB desktop version is: 2.82.5858.641 64-bit (June 2020)

Please help solve this problem. Thanks a lot.

I found the reason finally. It was caused by the 'Privacy levels' of python.

It must be set as 'public' which was required by the Doc.

Now it works. Thank you all so much.

Hi , @zhhu 

What is your data source, does it support refresh on service?

As mentioned by the errror messege,you may use a data source (Datasource for query1) that does not support scheduled refresh in powerbi service.

 

You may check if the following posts help:

Hi,

I'm afraid I didn't find any useful things from your link.

Here are the data sources I use in my dataset. All of them worked pretty well in Desktop and Service before. But now they can only work in Desktop. So I think maybe something has changed in Service ?

BTW, I cannot find <Data source credentials> section in current setting page which existed before:

Current:
