New dataset created when publishing pbix

[masao]

Let's say I have the following reports and datasets in power bi web.

Reports - MyReport

Datasets - MyDataset

I then save MyReport.pbix and edit the pbix with my power bi desktop. Then I publish it. It results in two datasets, MyDataset and a new dataset called MyReport.

Reports - MyReport

Datasets - MyDataset, MyReport

Is there a way to publish the editted pbix without creating a new dataset? I'm guessing I missed something obvious but can't seem to figure this out. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

 Normally when you publish a dataset to the power bi service, the data set and the report will have the same name.  I guess you then went ahead and created a new report on the power bi service hence the reason you have a different name for your report.   Have you tried renaming the downloaded report so that it is called my dataset before republishing?
