"Invoke Attempt Failed"

I can't even find any google search results for that phrase.  It doesn't exist.   I was putzing on and off for about a week on a MSPBI Dashboard that I left open.  I don't remember everything I did...

    So this is a very unfortunate reply for me to write:  It turns out (?) that the MSPBI file basically got corrupted while I was working on it for 7 days.  Later in the day I tried to save it, and I kept getting an error saying it was unable to save it.  So I copied all of the code behind my queries into different notepad files, closed the file, rebooted, opened it again, and copied all of my queries from Notepad back into it.

     

    The error is gone.

     

    So maybe the reason why I couldn't find information on "Invoke Attempt Failed" was because it's a nonsense error fixed by discarding all your work and going back to the last successful save 😞

     

    I do appreciate everybody's thoughts/input on this, I'm sorry this wasn't more interesting (?)

You could narrow it down by disabling load on each query (or in groups to check faster) to see when it goes away.  Then you could troubleshoot and maybe rebuild that query.  Make sure you don't have any measures or DAX columns on any tables you disable load on so you don't lose them.
