    Hi nicolo_scarpa

    you could download the lastest version from this link, look at the details to make sure it is version 2.60.5169.3201.

    Or you can go to the download page from this link.

     

    Best Regards

I just had the problem, and it's due the fact the API, is to "new"? for the current Powerbi. 

 

 

Go to the your visual project folder (also where the pbiviz.json is located) using cmd. 

run the command

 

pbiviz update 1.10.0  (yes it's a api "downgrade", as we are at 13) (I do mind you, it might cause issues with typescript (i believe the 10 version supports typescript 2.3.3..., etc, so test it out)

 

repackage, and worked for me.

Did you manage to get the actual "sampleBarChart" example working by doing that?

 

I've downgraded the API version of the sample widget created with the "pbiviz new" command to 1.12.0 and it works. But this trick doesn't work with the sample of the "PowerBI-visuals-sampleBarChart" GitHub repository.
