[Error] - Couldn't load the data for this visual

Hey guys, I was developing some dashboards connecting in dev databases and when I finished my work and tryed to connect in Production databases (the exact same tables) this error showed up:

And the strangest part is some of the visuals shows up, but others don't see the screenshot below:

I have some tables in Import mode and other in DirectQuery and both of them either work or not.

 

Can anyone help me on this issue?

 

I already tried to create from blank the dashboard and it gets other error:

And if the same connections I validated in the SQL and it worked fine...

Hello,

 

I never use direct query, it causes problems as you have shown below.  I would flip everything over to import mode and give that a go.

Yes, I tried but as you can see the error goes both waysimage.pngimage.png happens for the Import table as well... not only direct query

Have a look at this link. Prehaps it is a timeout issue?
