    We cannot change data source of a report from Power BI service. Below is the post for your reference.

    Unfortunately, this is by design. power BI is now unable to achieve what you need . You can submit an idea for it at https://ideas.powerbi.com/forums and wait for users with the same needs as you to vote for you to help make it happen as soon as possible.

  • Use the Power BI REST API to change data source details on the service.
