Hi RezaAzimi,
Currently, there is no restriction on how large a pbix file can be locally. However, when you publish a pbix file over 1GB to Power BI Service, you will get a file size limit message. And in the case that your pbix file is less than 1GB when importing it to Power BI service, but the data model grows beyond 1 GB after a period of time, you will get a message when refreshing the dataset.
So in your scenario, please provide us more information, so that we can make further analysis.

Thanks for your reply on this matter.
My issue in this case was not Power BI but sharepoint since my file was located in a sharepoint folder and hence I could not upload a large pbix file to the folder due to a storage limit. However, now it is solved as I have configured the storage limit of the folder. But I am glad that you mentioned the 1 GB size limit to the Power BI service (it could happen that my file grows to 1 GB in the future). But in the case where the pbix file grows to 1 GB - what can be done in order to get your file to the power bi service?
