Hi ejQap ,
Please check if the following limitations are touched：
Limitations downloading a .pbix from a report
- You can download a file in either Reading view or Editing view. You must be at least a Contributor to the workspace.
- Reports created in Power BI Desktop must have been published or uploaded to the Power BI service before they can be downloaded.
- Reports created in the Power BI service must be saved before they can be downloaded.
- The report you're downloading must be published or updated after November 23, 2016. Reports published earlier aren't downloadable.
- You can't download reports and the built-in downloadable samples originally created in the Power BI service, unless the report was created through the quick create experience.
- Usage metric reports can't be downloaded to a .pbix file.
- You can only download the original report. You can't download a copy of a report.
- If you download a live connection report (connected to SSAS or AAS) after you change its data source by using REST APIs Update Datasources or Update Datasources In Group, the downloaded .pbix will still contain the old data source.
- You can't download reports created in the Power BI service that are based on a single dataset that is configured for large models, incremental refresh, or has been modified by using the XMLA endpoint.
- If you create a Power BI report based on a dataset in one workspace and publish the report to a different workspace, you can't download the report if the dataset is configured for large models, incremental refresh, or has been modified by using the XMLA endpoint.
