Unable to connect to datasets in the Power BI service

Hi,  I get this message, but not all the time. Seems to have started since downloaded Oct 2020 version of PBI desktop, and more than one PBI desktop open. If I close everything and try again I can connect okay! Any help appreciated.

Hi @a87rw ,

Try to clean the data source permissions or  upgrade the Power BI Desktop to the latest version.

 

Did I answer your question ? Please mark my reply as solution. Thank you very much.
