I have exact same issue. The server on which i have to run the desktop is not powerful enoguh to refrsh the query so i can't apply it in desktop. i tried as you did to save anyway and publish but sadly the servie only refreshes the query that were successfully applied.

I have no idea how to proceed now. Did you find any solution?

My workaround was to use a parameter to reduce the amount of data i was processing for the desktop and then change the parameter once uploaded to the cloud.

    Ah thats a god idea. So say you have a start date in a seperate table and you set it short to upload the fact table. Thenyou change the start date to be al lthe data and just update that table and then publish?
