PowerBI Report Server shared dataset can not display data on browser

i am using powerbi report server. I want to create a datasource and use this datasource on my multiple powerbi reports. Normally, i can create one datasource (.pbix) on cloud version and when i publish it, i can use this datasource for multiple reports. Based on my research, PBIRS does not provide this feature. I use direct query option on my reports and want to create this datasource without SSAS option.

So, i decided to try "Odata feed" option. First, i created shared datasource (MsSqlServer) and datasource connects succesfully (with db user). Second, i created dataset using a small table ( 5 columns, 5 rows) using shared datasource.

The problem ; when i manage to dataset --> Data Preview --> Load data error shows up;

"The data set could not be processed.

There was a problem getting data from the Report Server Web Service."

Because of this error i can not use api url for Odata feed on my pbix file to get data from shared dataset. How can i manage solve problem?

Hi @rkapukaya ,

 

Have you ever try to connect to other dataset in your report server? Did it only happen on specified dataset? Based on my research, it could be the issue with the option below:

Please try to inactivate it and try again.

hi @v-deddai1-msft ,

 

I unchecked, closed-opened pbix and tried again but it still throws same error.

 

I have 3 datasets, one of them connects to sqlserver and others connect to oracle db. It happens for all datasets.

 

Besides, when i paste url to browser it throws error too. Also, when click "load data" via browser after create and save shared dataset i can not see data & error : There was a problem getting data from the Report Server Web Service."

 

 

Best Regards,

Ramazan

Hi @rkapukaya ,

 

Is your m query similiar to :

 

let
    Source = OData.Feed("https://sample.com/Reports/api/v2.0/datasets(DatasetID)/data",null, [MoreColumns=true]),
    #"Expanded More Columns" = Table.ExpandRecordColumn(Source, "More Columns", {"ID", "TITLE", "PRIORITY", "IMPACT", "MODIFIED", "CREATED"},

in
    #"Expanded More Columns"

Hello, try to change source type to Web. PBIRS returns data in json format.

Hi  @v-deddai1-msft  ,

 

Yes i tried like this on powerbi desktop (report server edition). 

 

Beside, I work on my PBIRS server.

 

Error description;

 

DataSource.Error: OData: Request failed: The remote server returned an error: (422) Unprocessable Entity. (The data set could not be processed.)
Details:
DataSourceKind=OData
DataSourcePath=https://MyReportServer/Reports/api/v2.0/datasets(DataSetId)/data
Url=https://MyReportServer/Reports/api/v2.0/datasets(DataSetId)/data
