Error when refreshing data in Power BI

Hello All, 

 

need help in telling me what is wrong . Could not seem to refresh data into my old Power BI report. However, when I import data from SQL Server into a newly Power BI report, it seems fine, and run perfectly. 

 

Your help would be appreciated! Thank you!

      Hi Bajee, 

       

      My data source is from the SQL Server ya. I have some new data that i would like to import from SQL Server to my Power BI report. Normally, I will just click on the refresh button, then it will refresh. 

      However, the error came up, by saying "there's not enough memory to run this operation" . 

       

      Thank you!

      Hi ymy_30,

       

      Based on error message, it told you 'not enough memory to complete the operation'. How many Idle RAM available on your device and server?

        Hi Anonymous , thank you for your reply. 

         

        My device have 8GB RAM. Should be enough to run the operation right?

         

        Best regards,
