Report using Live Connection suddenly can't load visuals

[Anonymous]

Hello Community  -  There are not any posts that I've seen that really address this issue.  

I am working on converting some of our reports from import mode, to live connection.   The live connection reports every now and then just stop being able to load visuals.   These reports are connected to a dataset (that is a composite model).    Closing and reopening, sometimes a few times, seems to fix the issue.    But that's not a solution.  

Any idea what causes this?

Hi @Anonymous ,

Please try to refer to https://ruiromanoblog.wordpress.com/2018/02/01/convert-a-power-bi-desktop-report-from-import-to-live-query/

There are many reasons why the visuals cannot be loaded. You can click on the error details to view the cause of the error. At present, the possible reason is that your visual field does not match the field name in LC mode, that is, it does not correspond. Try to delete the old field and put the LC mode field back into the view.
