Intermittent Error Connecting to Power BI Dataset

I am having intermittent issues connecting to an existing Power BI Dataset.  It worked fine for multiple weeks and now today I am getting the message below. If I republish the dataset, it seems to clear it up. It has happened three times today. The dataset itself is very large but it doesn't seem to be a capacity issue and has worked fine before.

Things fine all day today and then all of the sudden can't connect to the Power BI dataset.  This is very frustrating. Do you know if there is any progress on resolving this issue?

Hi @v-diye-msft 

 

This is really becoming a problem. Just had issues connecting to the dataset again. Was fine all day until now. 

 

I am concerned that this will become a big issues for our end-users when we deploy this app (this is an ISV application).

Thanks!

Hi @v-diye-msft 

 

I am having a major problem. I can now longer connect to my Power BI Dataset in my existing PBIX file. The dataset is out there and I can connect to it with a new file. How do I reset that connection?  I will have lost days of work if I cannot reset the connection.

Never mind - I got the connection back. I still need to understand why my dataset connection keeps getting lost. In addition, this last time, the dataset itself was gone.
