Hi team,
I am recently come across an issue with setting up the auto refresh for sharepoint file.
I created my power bi report from desktop and the dataset was originaly on my local desktop. After I finished the report and published, I removed my data source to the sharepoint so other team members can have access to. Hence I deleted my report from the power BI services as well.
I was manage to change my datasource pointed to sharepoint folder from the power bi desktop, also renamed the pbix file to file2.pbix, after I re-piblish this file to pwoer bi service the Scheduled refresh still grayed out, also the Data source credential option as well.
Is there anyway I can get this working? or Which steps I am missing here? Appreciate for any suggestions!
Solved! Go to Solution.
I think I found the reason why its not working for my cases - I had another data source not coming from sharepoint but I didnt realise.
