New Power BI Update Does Not Allow Online Report to be Replaced

[npombo]

Hello,

I noticed today when attempting to republish a PBIX report online that I was no longer given the option to override the pre-existing report given that they have the same name and workspace. Instead of the pre-existing prompt, I am now greeted with this: 

When choosing to replace, this only affects the dataset being uploaded and not the report itself.

I don't want to have to reshare links and reshare permissions every time I go to publish this report, as the stakeholders of prior reports are used to navigating to a bookmark for consistency's sake. I'm not sure why Microsoft would decide to implement this evidently hindering change.

Any thoughts on how to work around this? Thank you!

Hi @npombo ,

I tested your issue in my Power BI Desktop and Service, but do not get the same issue. (The dataset and report can both be replaced).

Here are the versions of my Desktop and Service.

Try to refresh the page and see if the problem still remains. If this cannot help you, could you please tell us the version of your Desktop in order that we can help you further more?

Hello,

It appears as though we are working with the same version of Power BI desktop: 

Refreshing the page does not solve the issue at hand. To clarify/provide additional context - I am working with Power BI live datasets.
