cannot publish to web, when using a certified shared dataset

[steph_io]

I have a report that uses a certified dataset that is stored in a separate workspace.

Now I am unable to use the 'Publish to web' of the service to share the report.

Is this a known issue or should I investigate other reasons for why I'm no longer able to share the report in this way.

Thanks

This is a frustrating limitation of PowerBi. What is the point of having a universal source of truth like a shared live dataset if that dataset is locked away?

Hi there

It could be because the certified dataset might be classified as a live connected dataset?

Here are the current limitations

The dataset is an import of content from sharepoint excel files.  So the dataset itself is not a live connection, but since this separate report is using a shared PBI dataset as the source, the report has a 'live connection' to that PBI dataset?

Hi there

Yes that is correct, because it is using a Live Connection, that is one of the limitations with Publish to Web.
