Object reference not set to an instance of an object when updating dashboard

Hi, since power bi october version i'm not able to update power bi dashboard linked with sharepoint tracker. 

 

When i tried to, i have this error message : Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

 

I understand that there’s a workaround solution, which is to use the Power BI Desktop September 2021 version instead of the latest version but with that version i cannot create new dashboard due to compagny security limitation. 

 

Any ideas to fix the issue ? 

 

Regards
