Failed to load 1.40GB JSON over HTTP using WEB connector

Hi,

 

Trying to load pretty big JSON content (1.40GB) over HTTP to Desktop PowerBI using WEB data connector. Unfortunatelly this fails with:

 

Unable to connect

We encountered an error while trying to connect.

Details: "Received an unexpected EOF or 0 bytes from the transport stream."

 

Have I ran into some PowerBI limitations? Downloading a file on the same machine takes around 10minutes. Uploading a file directly to PB using JSON connector does not finish within 30m.

 

Is there any way I can debug what went wrong? In general what is the recommended way to load this types of volumes to PB?

 

Thanks in advance

Hi @Mateusz,

 

Are you able to connect to the same JSON source from Power BI desktop on a different machine under a different network?
