Hi @PeterParker 

 

Here are some limitations of the .PBIP file.

Please check if you have made some mistake.

1. Power BI Desktop isn't aware of changes made with other tools or applications. Changes made by using external tools require you to restart Power BI Desktop before those changes are shown.

2. Sensitivity labels aren't supported with Power BI projects.

3. Diagram view is ignored when editing models in the Service.

4. When saving as a Power BI Project, the maximum length of the project files path is 260 characters.

5. In Power BI Desktop, you can't save as a PBIP directly to OneDrive for Business and SharePoint.

6. When editing PBIP files outside of Power BI Desktop, they should be saved using UTF-8 without BOM encoding.

7. Report Linguistic Schema is not supported with Power BI projects.

8. Power BI Desktop uses CRLF as end-of-line. To avoid problems in your diffs, configure Git to handle line endings by enabling autocrlf.

9. Power BI Projects currently not supported in Microsoft Power BI Desktop (Optimized for Power BI Report Server).

If the above one can't help you, could you please provide more raw data in your tables (exclude sensitive data) with Text format and your expected result with backend logic and special examples? It would be helpful to find out the solution. You can refer the following links to share the required info:

And It is better if you can share a simplified pbix file. You can refer the following link to upload the file to the community. Thank you.
