Hi @Anonymous ,

 

1. On the Power BI side, you could set timeout option and check again. The maximum is 2 hours.

2. On the SQL side, you could use SSMS to check if there is a lock on one or more tables.

    If your data is large, you could create views to optimize data size. 

    It is recommended to update the Connection Timeout and Command Timeout parameters in the relational Target Connection.
