    Hi piecesofbread

     

    ToddChitt  pallavi_r  Thank you for your reply!

    Please allow me to provide some detail explanation:

    Firstly, it's important to clarify the difference between storage capacity and the size limit for individual files. While Power BI Pro accounts indeed have a storage limit of 10GB per user, this is separate from the size limit imposed on individual Power BI Desktop files (.pbix) that you can publish to the Power BI service. The maximum size for a single dataset or report that you can publish with a Power BI Pro license is 1GB. This is likely the reason you encountered the "The file is too large to be published" error message.

     

    For your second question:You cancel the Pro trial but it still shows that you have a Pro license. Sometimes, lingering data in your browser can cause discrepancies in what's displayed. Try clearing your browser's cache and then log back into Power BI.Once a Power BI Pro license cancels a trial, you can't request a trial again.

     

     

     

     

    Best Regards,

    Jayleny
