Hi @Anonymous ,

What data source is your report connected to? Does the report apply any RLS? And can it display properly in Power BI Desktop? There are many reasons that may cause this error, please check the following threads that have similar error messages to yours. Hope they can help you to solve the problem.

Couldn't load the data for this visual

I think your dataset has RLS, right?
If this is a case, you need to assign role to user to apply RLS filter, otherwise they will got this can't load data error.

Row-level security (RLS) with Power BI

BTW, current RLS only works on read permission, so admin and dataset owner can see each records even if they not get RLS roles.


Service: "Couldn't load the data for this visual", Desktop: all fine

The issue was the date in this function. replacing 31.01. by 31/01 solved the issue.

The problem was that I had finished my SQL query with semicolon;

When I removed the semicolon from the SQL query in advanced editor, the issue was resolved

You added build permissions to your shared dataset. Did you add build permissions to the dataset your dataset is sourced from? This typically explains this behavior for us, we build a Report B from Dataset A we must grant permissions at both sources.

Refer to this post here. Your problem might be related. As suggested by the user trying changing data type of column in data source. If you think it is not related then perhaps open a support ticket with MS support.


Best Regards

Hi, I am having the same issue. In my case the data source for my dataset A  (see picture) are coming from two API streaming dataset C and D (see picture). If I share the dasboard via link they are only able to see the dashboard but not the contend inside the visuals, geeting the 'Couldn't load the data for this visual '. They are only able to see the data if I make them admin of the workspace. FYI other users also have Pro licences. Any ideas

Hi there, did you get this working in the end? We are experiencing similar issues and can't figure it out, it is happening to some users but not others. Checked all the usual things, i.e. permissions, RLS, etc. Can't find a solution though. Fingers crossed you solved it!

Thanks, Richard

Hi, in my case it looks like I also have to gave permision for the API streaming datasets. Read permisions seem to work fine

Thanks for coming back so quickly, much appreciated, I will take another look at permissions and try that. 

Kind regards, Richard
