Hi @Anonymous 

according https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/connect-data/desktop-report-lifecycle-datasets#limitations-and-considerations

 

Since this connection is a live connection, left-navigation and modeling are disabled. You can only connect to one dataset in each report. This behavior is similar to the behavior when connected to SQL Server Analysis Services.

@Anonymous , If you have taken the power Bi dataset, you can not add others.

Hi @az38 ,

Thank you for the information, now how do it remove this dataset, once I have saved and published.
I need to start working on another data, do I need to restart the PowerBI Destop ?

Hi 

 

This is not very clear. Are you working on having a report with multiple data sources?  Otherwise you might want to create another report and repeat the get data procedure.
