Error Fetching Data for this Visual

[cs_data]

Hello,

I'm receiving the below error message on the majority of charts in my PowerBI desktop file, however I have been unable to find a resolve. There is no issue with the data connection. The other strange bit is that when I share the file with colleagues, they are able to open the file with all visuals loading without issue. I've owned this file for over a year now and have never run into this issue, and there have been no changes to the underlying data sources connected to these charts. 

Does anyone know what the root cause could be, or some suggestions for troubleshooting? 

The visuals all look like this: 

 

The error message on all charts is this:

Thank you!

Please, why is this marked as solved? I do not think that going back to a half-year-old version is a solution. Maybe a workaround.

I was using the 2025 June version 2.144.679 and got the error with a file that was good a week ago.

I installed the 2025 January version and 2.139.2054 and then it worked.

I tried the newest 2025 June version 2.144.878 and got the error again.

What I noticed is that the problem is related to calculation groups; more specifically, if I delete all my calculation groups, the very problem from the OP disappears (instead of course, all my measures that depend on the calc groups throw errors, but those are realistic errors). When I made a new calc group with new calc items, it was working until I renamed the "Name" virtual column to something else. I hope this helps to find a real solution (@po-wei ?), and I wonder if anyone else can confirm this behavior. (PBI v2.144.878 and Tabular Editor v2.25).

Reverting to Feb release should not be the only feasible solution Microsoft has come up with. I've been dealing with this issue since March 2025.  4 versions later there's still no patch or solution other than using a 4 month old version of the software.  Crazy.

I do not see this in a the list known issues for PowerBI. Do we know if this is being worked on?

I was able to have someone from Microsoft Support help me out (Mario FTW!!!). Turns out it was a bug in the March Version of desktop downloaded from the App Store that affects visuals after a few specific scenarios (in my case, the application was hanging so I had to force quit). Reverting to Feb version solved the issue across the board.

Thank you!!

Hello, big sorry about trouble. I'm working on related area. Would you be able to file a support ticket and provide the related measure that failed? We hope to repro.

So dear Po-wei - is anybody working on this on the Microsoft side? Can you confirm it is related to calculation groups as I noticed? (see my post in this thread).

You don't have control over versioning. this has broken many client models.

This seems to be a issue with the march release of power BI. Try revertong to Feb release
