Date Filter Error

I have recently updated the Power Bi desktop: March 2025 Update (2.141.1228.0)
But upon opening any file I get the following error:

This has never happened before and causing issues updating any reports, the error also isn't very helpful 😞

@karljackson ,

 

  • Try the following troubleshooting steps:
  • Refresh the dataset manually and review the refresh history for any errors.
  • Make sure the dataset size does not exceed the 1 GB per dataset limit in Power BI Service.
  • Create a new Power BI file, add the new  visual, and publish it separately to test.
  • If using a gateway, double-check the credentials and settings under Manage Gateway & Data Sources.
  • Publish the report using latest version of Power BI Desktop and test again.
  • If the issue persists, try replacing the new card visual with a standard card or KPI visual.This error will happen mostly using new card.

Regards,

Surya

I have the same exact problem. 

The behaviour I noticed is: When I control the end date, it is absolutely fine, but the issue appears only when I control the start date. 

The error I see on the visual is: Error fetching data for this visual see details. and when I click on see details I find out a non-helpful message: An unexpected error occurred (file", line, function "). date filter

This is really annoying and caused my complete work to stop!!!>

I have the exact same issue with Version: 2.141.1253.0 64-bit (March 2025)

When I filter on a specific data range I get the error. When removing the date filter from the visual, the visual is working back again.

Hi @karljackson 
Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Community Forum.
 

Since the issue started occurring after updating to Power BI Desktop March 2025 Update (2.141.1228.0) and affects all files, it is likely related to a bug in the latest update, corrupt installation, or conflict with existing dependencies and compatibility issues with existing datasets or custom visuals. It would be helpful to raise a support ticket with Microsoft for better assistance on this.

 

You can submit a ticket through the Microsoft Power BI Support Portal:

Thak you.

 

How can this issue be marked to have a solution? Should users keep reverting to Feb 25 version for ever?

I keep getting this error on almost all our reports, it's devastating.

 

The error comes even if there is NO DAX syntax but just from setting a date filter in the UI, filtering an object or a page. 

 

My colleagues say we need to have another tool than Power Bi but I spent SO many hours developing all the reports... 😞

I agree - on all threads the Feb 2025 reversion is marked as a solution when it is not a viable long term solution.
