Excel workbook with PowerBI odc file as external connector in the Service

$

Good Morning

 

I have an excel file utilizing an external ODC connector - which links back to a PowerBI data set within hte Service.

At the desktop level, I have been able to implement cubevalue style reporting utilizing a simple slicer.   Works GREAT!

 

However, now I am wanting to transition this same file to within the Service.   I have the file uploaded and now shows up in the specified workspace - under the Wookbook tab.  As I click on file name -as an attempt to open the file, a series of dialogs occur.

1: "Query and Refresh Data" warning regarding unsafe queries.  I click yes

2:  External Data Refresh Faled - indicating the initial ODC connector file name, click ok.

 

From there the file opens up in Excel online.   However, clicking on the slicer results in the same @#2 error External Date Refresh Failed

 

Looking within the file settings - I see no place to establish a gateway to this ODC file.   Since, the ODC goes back to a PowerBI dataset - once passed into the service, is there another connector I need to be using.   Since I uploaded froma  local drive versus OneDrive for business I have no edit options

 

Thank you!
