Power BI is a continuously evolving service, and sometimes, updates or changes made by Microsoft might affect the app deployment process. These changes could result in app update issues.
I have seen removing or renaming certain components like datasets, reports, or dashboards, it could result in the update process failing. This is because the new version might not be compatible with the existing app's configuration. Sometimes AppSource policies and guidelines also effect our app deployment.
From my personal experience we have the following best practices to follow.
1) Review your app's configuration changes between versions to ensure they are compatible. You might need to maintain backward compatibility to ensure a smooth update process.
and sometimes we deploy our app in lower environment(separate workspace) and User-Test it for few days or weeks and then deploy in Prod, this method is again helpful in avoiding some issues only!!!
2) Keep track of Power BI updates and announcements to be aware of any changes that might affect your app.
