Reaching maximum allowable memory alocation per tier

When trying to import data from Azure Analysis Services cube to Power BI desktop Data model getting the error:

Data set is 4xfact columns , 2x dimensions, columns, 2x dates columns. About 9 M rows

So it is relatively small.

What does this issue mean and how to get through this?

Is it means Analysis Services does not allows to import more data?

Hi @Anonymous,

 

Please check how much memory do you have and how much space you have used.

 

By my research, sometime this may be a temporary error.

 

You could have a reference of this two similar threads which have been solved.
