Issue with report rendering in Power BI Desktop

Hi All

 

I am getting below error during report rendering in Power BI desktop. My report is simple table with 12 columns. Most of the columns are DAX calculations.

 

Error:

Couldn't load the data for this visual

There is not enough memory to complete this operation. Please try again later when there may be more memory available.

 

Thanks and regards...

Hi @Divya904,

 

As @Anonymous asked, What version of Power BI are you running?  Is it 64 or 32 bit?  How much Ram does your computer have?

 

Besides,this error shows that you don't have enough memory. Please extend your memory as much as possible. You can refer to this article(though the article is about PowerPivot, it should be similar with Power BI) to optimize your data model in a way that makes a better use the available memory. 

 

For another thing, if you upload the data in import model, please disable "Allow data preview to download in the background" from options / options and settings/data load. And check if it is useful.

 

Best Regards,

Hello @Divya904

 

I had the same problem and here what I did : 

 

I've created a view of my table as it had too many columns. I've reduced it to the needed column only.

Then I've created a new PBI file and  imported my data to the file and created my report again.

 

I've read somewhere that the problem could be because user use VirtualMachine, is it your case ?
