    Hi, Anonymous 

    This side of the test refresh everything is fine, using Microsoft account authentication method to connect to the SharePoint list and publish to the Service, and then create the dashboard. 

    You need to make sure that your Gateway connections in the cloud connection, if not, please change the If not, please change it to Personal Cloud connect or url. And make sure that the table or URL of the data source has not been changed or removed.
