DAX Studio - Server Timing error against F SKU
I've been unable to use "Server Timing" in DAX Studio against my F sku workspaces. This still works against AAS proper.
I'm receiving the error "There was an error while pinging the trace - retrying".
I've tried extending my timeout to 60 seconds. This did not have any impact. Has anyone else ran into this problem and have an idea of a solve or workaround?

Hi Dblain2,
Thanks for reaching out to the Microsoft Fabric Forum Community.
Possible workarounds I can Think off are,Use XMLA Endpoint Instead: Connect to the workspace using the XMLA endpoint and use View Metrics in DAX Studio. This is often more stable for F SKU environments.
Test with Higher SKU (F64+): If you're on a lower-tier F SKU (e.g., F2–F32), try testing on an F64 or higher, which more closely mirrors Premium capacities and may support richer telemetry.
If this helped, please mark the response as the accepted solution and give it a thumbs-up so others can benefit too.

Prasanna KumarThanks for you response! I believe I'm already connected via the XMLA endpoint. I believe thats the only way to connected to a Premium workspace via DAX Studio. I was able to get View Metrics to run, however this isn't what i'm looking to do. I am looking to test query timings to do some testing.
I've tried multiple different scenarios. I've tried on an F64 and F32. I've also tried on a workspace that I'm the admin of. I've also toggled the large vs small semantic model setting. None have allowed me to connect. I am able to connect via SSMS, but this experice is subpar compared to DAX Studio.Have you tried updating Dax studio to the latest version?
