Is there any possible way to access and work 400-500 Gb of datas in powerbi pro?
Hi @Anonymous ,
As a pro license user, there will be the following limitations:
But the data volume of the data source you want to connect far exceeds this limit. Please check the connection mode of the data source you want to connect to and whether you can make some transformation operations on the data before then to control the data within the limit.
