All Custom Visuals Do Not Render in Browser

Hello, We're having problems with any custom visuals imported from the marketplace.  These custom visuals do not render in Chrome, Edge, or even Firefox.  There is no error, the visual is just blank.  The data appears to be there, because I can click around and see the filter pane change.  It looks fine in Power BI Desktop.  

 

I just upgraded from January 2021 release to the September 2021 release to see if it would fix the issue but the custom visuals still do not render in the browser.  I feel like it may have something to do with same-site cookies but I'm not sure.  Has anyone else encountered this?

 

Thanks!

    Microsoft sucks, thats the truth. I have a critical incident with them and no luck so far, they try to blame your environment or even the custom visual but in my company they are intermitent, some times they load some times not and only happen with customs. After this patch it basically destroyed 5 environment with 16k users.

  • I also got the same issue...

    Weird thing is sometimes (1 out of 30) the custom visuals show.

    I have testet with the custom visual 'Infographic Designer' if I make a new report and import this visual the custom visual it doesnt show in PBIRS. But if I use 'Infographic Designer' sample report the custom visual always render in PBIRS.

    Hoping for a fix.

    Update:

    This known issue is not about PBIRS. But my PBIRS has no issue. Sorry for any misunderstanding.

    Right now, MS looks like is creating a new patch to address the issue and also have some troubleshootings happening with Google Chrome and EDGE issues related to cookies.

        Hi Icey  

        I still have the issue.

        Power BI Report Server (January 2021) Version 1.10.7737.32652. 
        Edge version 97.0.1072.55.

        One thing I have found is that if I open Edge InPrivate. The custom visuals will show the first time. But if I hit refresh they will disappear.

        Regards Taico

    Found a solution to this. The only way we resolved this, was to delete (or rename) the "Edge" folder on your local computer, within your %userprofile%\AppData\Local\Microsoft 

     

    This clears all your settings, cache, etc... for the Edge browser. But is the only thing we found that worked. Clearing cache/settings wasn't enough.
