Power BI Desktop version 2.139.1678

Hi there,

 

Does anyone from the Microsoft Product team know which changes were made between the Power BI Desktop versions  

Microsoft Power BI Desktop 2.139.1678 (x64) (January 2025)
and 

Microsoft Power BI Desktop 2.139.1576 (x64) (also January 2025)?

 

The Power BI Desktop changelog doesn't contain any news yet: Change log for Power BI Desktop - Power BI | Microsoft Learn

 

We have a custom deployment process in our organization. Currently the 1576 version is available for download for our report developers; we need to know whether we have to expect any severe problems with this version as long as the 1678 build is not installed yet.

  • As you already mentioned that the official Power BI Desktop changelog does not list any updates for versions 2.139.1576 or 2.139.1678,  it's likely because that the differences between these two versions are minimal and may pertain to minor bug fixes or performance improvements. Therefore, continuing to use version 2.139.1576 should not pose significant issues for your report developers.

    However, if you want to verify the compatibility and stability within your organization custom deployment process, I advise you to monitor the official changelog for any future updates regarding these versions. You can consider testing version 2.139.1576 in a devenvironment before  prod deployment to identify any potential issues specific to your workflows.
