Data Refresh Error on Power BI Desktop

I was attempting to refresh a Power BI file. This file is connected to a view which is in Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio. 

 

Upon refreshing the file, I received the following error...

Hi @Jaikrit94,

 

1. How did you get data from the SQL Server database? Did you do any transform for the data in desktop? Is it DirectQuery mode, or Import?

2. Go to the Query Editor, refresh separate table to see which table has the issue. You can select specific table then click Refresh Preview button.

3. Please try to run the latest desktop version 2.46.4732.581.

 

Best Regards,
