Hi @szaffers 

We have loaded the limited data in Desktop using Parameter. 

In Service, We just updated the parameter with full load. It is working fine.. Check the below link

Hi @Fowmy  Thanks!  We have a premium capacity and the same kind of another dataset (around 3GB) is running fine. 

Were you able to resolve this?  We are having the exact same issue on a premium capacity

It seems like you are using Power BI Pro license and trying to publish a file that is more than 1GB. Pro allows maximum 1GB. You make go for PPU license which allows 100 GB
