    • Uncheck Auto Date/Time in your pbix by navigating through Fileà Options & Settings-->Options-->Current File-->Data Load-->Auto Data/Time
        • Please make sure you are retrieving only the columns which are required , if the column is no longer required prior to importing please delete the unwanted columns in power query
        • if you don’t need certain rows of data, then filter them out

       

        • Make sure you clear cache from power bi desktop
