Error: we reached the end of the buffer

Hi, 

 

I am getting the below error ("we reached the end of the buffer") when trying to get data from Web (using an API like 170.21.8.10:10000/BC/v1/BPL200/Device/GUI/AB/). I am using the latest version (December 2020) of Power BI Desktop.

It was working fine yesterday but this started from today only.

Please help to resolve this issue.

 

Thanks

In my case, this issue was due to some problem at data source.

Thank you for helping on the issue.

Hi @jitpbi ,


Could you tell me if your problem has been solved?

If you are still confused about it, I think it might be a memory issue. Please reserve enough memory to run Power BI, and try to reinstall the latest version of Power BI Desktop.
