Solved: Third party visual

Alusine_Kamara · ‎12-03-2023

Hello all! Please, how do I attach a screenshot on this page...New Message page?

I attempted to import third party visual into Power BI Desktop, clicking on the three dots under visuallization and, clicking on "more visuals", or any of the options, takes very, very long to load or don't load at all. I am using the November 23, 2023 version of Power BI Desktop, and I am experiencing this problem. By my experience, it was quite easy to load with the preceeding version.

Please help me out on these issues.

Hello Nono, I must apologize to have wasted your time on this issue. Since I installed the Nov 23, Power BI Desktop, attempting Third Party Visual was my first time. The visual took very long to upload and I got frustrated. With several attempts, it is now uploading at a very fast rate. It was my first attempt.

Once again, I am sorry. I should have taught about that before reaching out to you. Thanks!

I thank you so much for the real time response. Sadly though, I do not know how to get to the "System Properties" window. Upon clicking "File" in the ribbon, I tried "Options and Settings" then "Options", I could not find "System Properties"

In the search engine in the Quick Access bar, I entered "System Properties" but could not find it. Please help me. I really want to thoroughly Power BI.
Thanks in advance.

Hi @Alusine_Kamara

I’m sorry to hear that you are having trouble importing third party visuals into Power BI Desktop. This issue may be caused by some environment variables that affect the loading of custom visuals. You can try the following steps to resolve this issue:

Configure the Environment variable under “Advanced System settings:

Add PBI_userFavoriteResourcePackagesEnabled to environment variables and set it to 0. After making this change, restart Power BI Desktop for Power BI Report Server, and try loading a custom visual.
