    All,

     

    I have submitted a new version for approval that fixes the 'unexpected error' and after approval it will be available asap.

     

    Sorry for the inconvenience.

     

    Thanks, JP

Thanks, JP

Have you managed to identify what had caused the error? I mean I've started just recently see this error, but the report was created a month ago, as well as the slicer was added, and I really didn't change anything in Power BI config since the beginnig of July. So my point is, how reliable will be the new update of the slicer?  In case there is a chance that any new update of Power BI will resuscitate the bug, hmm,let's say it will make our reports rather unstable.

    Sorry about all the issues it is causing, but an updated version is in beeing reviewed and after that asap released.

     

    New version can always cause issues and this issue was missed during testing/reviewing. But I have learned what this caused and how to tackle/test this kind of issues in a next version.

      jppp Do you know approximately how soon the new version will be released? I want to be able to provide proactive communication to our senior leadership team regarding month-end reporting.
