We are experiencing lots of problems trying to refresh power Bi Datasets that query databases, either in Power Bi Desktop or using the On-premises data gateway.

The problem is that after refreshing a table, the database connection doesn't close.
Currently, we are full of open connection from Power BI in our databases.
And in some of our databases we have a limit on the number of connections each user. As a result, reports fail to refresh.

Is there any way to force the connections to close after the refresh?
I think is a really nasty BUG
