Hello,
I am having trouble refreshing Power BI. I get multiple errors that come up when trying to refresh, and most of them say "Load was cancelled by an error in loading a previous table." There is another error that says that the path cannot be found. Is there any way I can solve this?
Thank you,
Emily
Hi @Anonymous ,
From your error message, it indicates that there are some errors in the offending query.
1.Check all connections data sources, maybe a wrong connector is used.
2.Go to Query Editor->Advanced Editor and see check if some data source paths have be changed.
3.In Query Editor, check if some queries have error messages.
Or make a backup first, then try to remove sources one-by-one to see if you can determine the source that is causing the issue.
You may resolve the issue via the troubleshooting link :https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/refresh-troubleshooting-refresh-scenarios .

Hi Amy,
I haven't found anything in the Query Editor that fixed the error I receive when trying to refresh. Could it be that I am trying to refresh and publish in a report that I did not create?
Thank you,
Emily
Hi @Anonymous ,
You can download the pbix file from the original report page in Power BI Service, open in Power BI Desktop to check the list above one by one, there may be something changed in your queries.

I have tried this, but still can't find anything to fix it because I do not really know what to look for. I looked at editing the queries. The errors in the queries say that the path cannot be found, but the path is correct. Not really sure where to go from here. This is the message I get every time I try to refresh.
Thank you for your help,
Emily
