After the latest Power BI update for June 2023, smart narratives for certain matrix table visuals are no longer working. They are grayed out, and cannot display the visual. When I click on the additional information button, I get a popup with this message:
"query (75,3) could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.caching.redis, version=3.0.0.0, culture=neutral, publickeytoken=c219ff1ca8c2ce46' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified."
Has anyone else experienced this? If so, what should I do to fix this? I love smart narratives, and so do our students; however, I'm not going to be able to confidently show them if this is the error we're all going to receive.
Thanks in advance for the help!
