Hi there,
I was trying to refresh a data set from power bi service which was throwing error like below
| Data source error: | Information is needed in order to combine data;Information about a data source is required.. The exception was raised by the IDbCommand interface. Table: XXX. |
| Cluster URI: | WABI-US-NORTH-CENTRAL-redirect.analysis.windows.net |
| Activity ID: | 9c682f10-1b40-4e9c-a3c2-c696c5fbfacf |
| Request ID: | bf0e3204-34ae-120b-580f-8df381ae90a2 |
| Time: | 2022-09-13 07:58:31Z |
But Same was properly refreshed in power bi Desktop.Does any one let me know the reason why it happened?
Hi there. The message specifing it requires more information makes me think that you need to specify the privacy levels of the data sources. Go to the dataset settings and edit the credentials of the data sources. When you do that be sure all of the have the same privacy levels (i would suggest all in organizationl). If you want to read more about this you can check the following doc:

I hope that helps,
Happy to help!
