The field 'Created Date' already exists in the record. (Sharepoint O365)

[mmilliman]

At the beginning of last week (5/15/17), several of our scheduled refreshes started to fail. This was occuring on our O365 Sharepoint lists, and all contained the exact same error message. 

"The field 'Created Date' already exists in the record."

All of the lists had worked fine for several months, then all failed simultainously. 

We are able to manually refresh the data, so it is solely isolated to scheduled refreshes. 

Does anyone know a solution?

Thanks in advance!

Hi @mmilliman,

I personally suggest you download your .pbix file and publish it to Power Bi service, and check if it works fine. You'd better create a support ticket to trace background data, then you will get more professional support. Open this link, and click the highlighted line button on the right bottom.

Hi Angelia!

That was actually my first step in troubleshooting on my own, and it did not help. 

What I did find that worked was actually renaming the column within BI Desktop, then publishing that Report/Dataset. Granted, that is definitely not the greatest solution, because the data has a different name, but it's better than failing all of the time!

Thanks for your reply!
