    Hi v-sdhruv .

    Finally, I've solved it! I did what you mentioned; however, it didn't work for me if you already have the workspace assigned to a specific Deployment Stage. What you need to do is follow the steps you mentioned plus the ones below:

    1. Unassign workspace from the Deployment Pipeline Stage
    2. Refresh Deployment Pipeline interface
    3. Assign the workspace again

    Magically it pairs the items so we don't alter existing links and items!

    Thanks

    Hi v-sdhruv . Yes, unfortunately, both solutions are not working. I wrote an answer below but I'll write it here again:

     

    Hi! Thanks for your reply @HarishKM @rohit1991 .

    I followed this approach:

    1. Download original file from the workspace
    2. Save the file to the Shared Library in OneDrive
    3. Import this file from OneDrive to the PowerBI workspace (I thought this could overwrite the original file)

    However, with the last step what I get is 2 files exactly with the same name, same content, same size and I didn't overwrite the existing one to keep the same link. What did I do wrong?
