Hi @Anonymous,

Do you connect to .xls Excel file and refresh it in Power BI Service? If that is the case, refreshing against a .xls file is not supported. As stated in this article, Power BI supports importing or connecting to workbooks created in Excel 2007 and later. Workbooks must be saved as .xlsx or .xlsm file type and be under 250 MB.

To work around the above issue, you can change Excel file form type .xls to .xlsx, then you are able to refresh the dataset in Power BI Service.

Thanks,
