    You need to check the difference between your colleague and your computer configuration and powerbi version,or try to uninstall the software and reinstall. If the modification can be done on your colleague’s computer, it’s not a pbi file problem.

Hi, Anonymous 

 

What does it mean that the report can't be opened successfully, Is there a screenshot of the error message?

If you want to refresh data without open the pbix file, you need to download a gateway and set schedule refresh.

Reference:

Power BI Gateway | Microsoft Power BI

Configure scheduled refresh - Power BI | Microsoft Docs

How to provide sample data in the Power BI Forum - Microsoft Power BI Community

Hello v-janeyg-msft  , 

Please find in the screenshot above the error message that I got while trying to open the report today. Sometimes I just got a blank page. Please note that I have two other report larger than this one that are still opening fine.

 

Indeed I need to set up a scheduled refresh, but I have a final transformation to add to do in Power query that is why I need to open the report. On another note, can the schedule report being set up even if the data is stored on my Org SharePoint?

 

Thank you very much in advance.
