Error : Cannot display the visual

Hi,

 

I'm new to Power BI and decided to learn it by experimenting. I had created a file on Sharepoint server and conneccted it to power BI, After transforming, correcting errors, I loaded the data.

 

The moment I'm putting the first visual (I tried using different visuals), all I get is the "can't display the visual"

 

I serched in the forum. Many people have the same error but each case seems unique. Can someone help in case the file is linked to sharepoint and showing "can't display the visual" error? What should be my checklist for diagnosis?

 

Thanks in advance!

      I have the same drawback....

      Error Message:
      OLE DB or ODBC error: [Expression.Error] Could not fold the expression to the data source. Try it with a simpler expression.

    The same thing happens to me in Power BI Service, I don't know how to fix it even though in Power BI Desktop it works well
