Morning, I have a excel file on dropbox where I setup a macro to have a powerquery run overnight to pull data from our databases and then save.  What we call our master data excel file. Afterward...

    Thank you all for the response.  

    I ended up submitting a ticket in through Dropbox.  This appears to be related to a update they performed.  They rolled back for my individual file and the link appears to be staying the same now. 

    We ended up moving our master data file to a local drive.  This does mean we have to relink 250 files, but at least we have control of such issues in the future, but I wanted to post here in case others have the same issue going forward.  Good luck.

     

    I just received an update from our engineering team with news on a temporary fix. 

    It looks like we were able to isolate this issue to a recent update of ours. While we're working to get this fixed, we've rolled back the update for your account and I've verified that the machine you contacted us about initially, "CHS4156695", has reverted that update. 

    My team will continue to work on getting this fixed - but we didn't want that to be at the cost of your productivity. 

    I'm going to leave this ticket on-hold for the time being as I monitor for updates, but you should be good to go.
