Scheduled Refresh and Refresh Now giving Error

[rbrownson]

I scheduled a Refresh and it did not work. I tried to do a "Refresh Now" and it gave me the following error. My connections are connected and I am "online" with my data set. 

There was an error when processing the data in the dataset.
Please try again later or contact support. If you contact support, please provide these details.

Data source errorColumn 'Order No' in Table '0018' contains blank values and this is not allowed for columns on the one side of a many-to-one relationship or for columns that are used as the primary key of a table.

Is the data source an Excel file?  I've noticed that blank rows at the end of the data file can creep in and cause this problem.  Best solution is to open it up in Power BI Desktop, and get the Edit Queries section to remove the rows that causing the blanks.

Yes one of the sources is in an Excel File. I refresh the data manually and delete all blank and duplicated rows. I save my Desktop report but it does not refresh the online report on powerbi nor the published report on the web. I keep getting the refresh error.

@rbrownson,

Are you able to refresh your reports in Power BI Desktop? Could you please check that if the ‘Order No’ column contains blank values in Query Editor of Power BI Desktop?

There are no blank rows as I remove all of them when I do my manual refresh.

If this worked previously, this is generally an intermittent issue and will get resolved.

It has not worked at all. The data has not refreshed on my online version of the report nor the published report. I even try to manually do it and it does not refresh.

Download a copy of your PBIX file and test inside the "Edit Queries" section.  You might not be deleting those rows as well as you think.  This will also let you set up the Power Query to remove them for you, thus removing any requirement to do this manually.

When I work in the Desktop version, every morning I refresh all my data manually (each file and table I right click and click "refresh data"), then I go into the queries and go into every file and click "Remove blank rows" and Remove duplicate rows, I hit clsoe and apply. Then I click the refresh button at the top which refreshes all tables and files. So yes I am revmoing them the way PowerBi says to. No it still is not working. Has not worked once.

@rbrownson,

Would you mind sharing me the Excel file and PBIX file?
