No known issues: Power BI is running smoothly

Awareness

Power BI customers with Premium Capacities using SharePoint Online as a data source may see refresh not complete successfully with the following message - "The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred on a send". As a temporary workaround until the issue is resolved in Premium capacity, The workspace where the dataset is running can be moved to shared capacity and an on-demand\schedule refresh can be configured. Power BI and SharePoint engineers are actively working on a fix and expect it to be deployed by end-of-day 06/09/2020.
Power BI engineering team has resolved an issue impacting customers loading or refreshing reports using Google BigQuery in DirectQuery mode. Following the applied solution customers are required to re-enter credentials for the affected Dataset. To re-enter credentials navigate to Dataset Settings for affected datasets and re-enter credentials through “Edit credentials” under the Data source credentials section.
