    Hi Yadavagiri 

     

    Failed to save changes to the server. Error returned: 'Out of memory...' Indicates that the operation you attempted to perform exceeded the available memory resources.

     

     If you're using Power BI Pro, consider moving to Power BI Premium or Premium Per User (PPU) for higher memory limits.

     

    The memory limit is determined by the SKU of the Premium capacity.

     

    If your dataset is divided across multiple CSV files and folders, consider refreshing them in segments rather than all at once. This approach can help manage memory usage more effectively.

    Hi Yadavagiri 

     

    If you're using Power BI Pro or Premium, you can take advantage of the Incremental Refresh feature.

     

    This allows you to refresh only the data that has changed or been added since the last refresh, rather than the entire dataset.

    For a more automated approach, you can use the Power BI REST API to programmatically refresh segments of your dataset.

    If Incremental Refresh is not an option, you can consider refreshing specific tables manually.
