Hi @Dnyaneshwar,
Current there is a similar known issue at CRI 67754144, it is appears with SSAS MD datasource with live connection mode.
Can you please share your error trace log file so I can send to power bi team to confirm this?
Regards,
Xiaoxin Sheng
Hi Xiaoxin,

Hi @Dnyaneshwar,
Can you share sql profiler trace log here? I can't find any useful in above trace log.
Regards,
Xiaoxin Sheng
Do you mean SSAS server log trace file?
Thanks,
Dnyaneshwar
Hi @Dnyaneshwar,
Yes, I will send trace log to team to confirm if you faced similar issues.
