For all direct query source (including cloud source), there's no 1 gb dataset limitation. But it has 1 million row limit for returning data. For more details, please see: Use DirectQuery in Power BI Desktop

 

Regards,

Thanks for your prompt response.

For IMPORT there is a limit of 1 GB and I would like to know is it the same for Azure documentDB.

The 1 GB limitation is on Power BI Desktop level, which is applied on all data sources.

 

Regards,
