No Report Generated

Everytime I publish to a workspace I get the message below. It uploads the sementatic model to the workspace, but the Report is never generated. Even if I manually upload the .pbix file, the report is still not generated.

Hi @LetsGoChanGo ,

Please check If any of these points are causing the issue you are experiencing:

Directly publishing a protected .pbix file from Power BI Desktop to the Power BI service is not supported for guest users, even if they have higher-level permissions. To update or publish reports from a protected .pbix file, guest users need to start from the Power BI service, using Get Data, for example.


Two or more semantic models in Power BI with the same name as the Power BI Desktop file could cause publishing to fail. Make sure you have only one semantic model in Power BI with the same name. You can also rename the file and publish, creating a new semantic model with same name as the file.

I hope this information helps. Please do let us know if you have any further queries.
Thank you

Hi @LetsGoChanGo ,

I wanted to check if you had the opportunity to review the information provided. Please feel free to contact us if you have any further questions.


Thank you.

None of the proposed solutions are working. It's weird because I have a .pbix file that is able to upload and generate a report, but a simple .pbix with just a text box doesn't work. Is there a way to compare the two files to see if the settings are configured in a certain way?

If your PBIX file has no report pages, Power BI will only publish the semantic model, not a report. Even manual uploads behave the same.

 

To fix it:
- Add at least one visual to a report page in Power BI Desktop
- Republish the file
- Check workspace for both Dataset and Report artifact

Hi @LetsGoChanGo 

 


A thread on the

Microsoft Fabric Community

    describes similar symptoms: semantic models upload successfully, but visuals relying on them break or disappear.
