Advocate IIcannot publish to web, when using a certified shared dataset
I have a report that uses a certified dataset that is stored in a separate workspace.
Now I am unable to use the 'Publish to web' of the service to share the report.
Is this a known issue or should I investigate other reasons for why I'm no longer able to share the report in this way.
Thanks

Hi there
It could be because the certified dataset might be classified as a live connected dataset?
Here are the current limitations
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/service-publish-to-web
steph_ioThe dataset is an import of content from sharepoint excel files. So the dataset itself is not a live connection, but since this separate report is using a shared PBI dataset as the source, the report has a 'live connection' to that PBI dataset?
- GilbertQHi there
Yes that is correct, because it is using a Live Connection, that is one of the limitations with Publish to Web.
This is a frustrating limitation of PowerBi. What is the point of having a universal source of truth like a shared live dataset if that dataset is locked away?
