Hi @murilo_2002 ,

 

There are some caveats and limitations to data export. Please check.

Hi @murilo_2002  - Yes, this issue can happen when exporting data from a Power BI report that uses a Live Connection because exporting is limited or disabled in this mode depending on the data source and report settings. Since all your coworkers are facing the same issue, it's likely a Power BI or server-side restriction. 

 

alternatively  you can try , If "Export Data" isn't working, try:Copying the table manuallyExporting through Power BI Service instead of Desktop

OK! in the service version, I know it works, BUT when I say live connection, I'm connecting to the Azure Analytics Services database, and we can't publish because of a policy here that imposes a limit on published reports, but rajendraongole1   you said "Because export is limited or disabled in this mode depending on the data source and report settings." Do you know where I can see if it is limited or disabled? just so you know, we tested it on several connections to different databases and the error continues
