Refresh doesn't work on service but does work on Desktop. Everything online tested.

Looking forwards to all the help. I spend a lot of time trying to solve this myself but I cant figure it out.

I would reccomend renaming the pbix file and republishing under a different name to see if the model works in the service. In the past, I have had models that are somehow corrupt in the service fail until they were replace. Microsoft never could explain why they failed or why removing them and republishing them worked. It just did.

Thank you! Refreshing the query's was also needed. Setttings "Load data in background" also needed to be turned on on desktop. Combining these elements made the service refresh succesfull. Thanks!
