Refresh of Excel Workbook in Teams Workspace fails

Hi,

I have an Excel workbook that is stored in the file storage that belongs to a team in Microsoft Teams. Refresh of this workbook in Power BI service keeps failing. If I click on "edit" for the Excel workbook in Power BI service then the Excel workbook opens in the browser and I can edit it. So obviously the file exists at the URL expected by Power BI and I have the necessary privileges to access it. Any ideas how to fix the refresh issue?

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

When things go wrong, it’s usually because Power BI can’t sign into data sources, or if the dataset connects to an on-premises data source, the gateway is offline. Make sure Power BI can sign into data sources. If a password you use to sign into a data source changes, or Power BI gets signed out from a data source, be sure to try signing into your data sources again in Data Source Credentials.

 

Reference: Refresh a dataset created from an Excel workbook on a local drive

                  Refresh a dataset created from an Excel workbook on OneDrive, or SharePoint Online
