Hi @Anonymous 

 

The message "Operation was aborted by an application callback" often points to a few potential issues such as network problems, query or data size issues, or configuration settings in Snowflake or Power BI.

Here are some steps and checks to help you resolve this error:

 

Verify ODBC Drivers
Make sure that you have the latest ODBC driver for Snowflake installed on your system. An outdated driver might not fully support newer features or may have bugs that have been resolved in later versions.


Query Complexity and Data Volume
Review the complexity and volume of the data being retrieved. Very large datasets or complex queries can sometimes lead to timeouts or other interruptions.
Try reducing the result set size by modifying the query to fetch less data or by simplifying the query to test if the issue persists.


Snowflake Account Settings
Check any timeout settings or resource limits in Snowflake that might be affecting long-running queries. This includes checking your warehouse size and performance settings, which can be adjusted to better handle larger or more complex queries.


Power BI Data Load Settings
Within Power BI, adjust the timeout settings for the data source. You can increase the timeout to allow longer for data to be returned from Snowflake.
Navigate to 'File' > 'Options and settings' > 'Options' > 'Data Load' and increase the timeout settings here.


Review Snowflake Query History
Use Snowflake's web interface to check the query history. This can help you understand if the queries are completing successfully within Snowflake and what errors or issues might have been logged there.
