Problem: Import .pbix from Desktop powerbi
lucasakira Couple initial questions. Are you running the latest desktop version? And how large is your PBIX? You can check this by changing the file extension to .zip and seeing the sizes of the files. You currently cannot exceed the 250mb size limitation...
Hi,
I'm getting the same error. This was my day:
Morning (DK time, GMT+1): Everything worked fine
Midday: Not able to log on to PBI. It was caused by a general error in Azure AD. MS worked on the issue, and it was reportely resolved early afternoon.
Afternoon-now: I can log on, but not upload pbix files.
I have tried with multiple files. All of them small, and some of them I have worked with and uploaded many times over the last couple of months.
I have raised an issue with MS regarding this.
For fellow googlers, here's the exact english message:
We couldn't import data from Power BI Designer File
Make sure you're entering the information correctly.
I had uploaded this same file several times before too...
My guess is it's residual issue from the Azure AD issue. Hope this gets resolved soon.
