I have some PBIX files that were connected to a direct query source that is no longer available.
Is it at all possible to extract the visuals that were in the file without connecting to the source?
Thank you Ibendlin but the file is not currently connected so will not open. Is there any way of converting to PBIP without having this connection in place.
Describe "will not open". What error messages do you get?
It comes up with the option box "Please specify how to connect"
Export the file to PBIP format.
