Hi,

While creating custom visuals for power bi, I am getting module not found error. Even though the module is present in the library I am getting the module not found error. Below is the error message and screenshot.

Hi @Anonymous ,

Thanks for reaching out to us with your problem. Base on your description, it seems like you're encountering a module not found error while developing custom visual in Power BI. This error occurs when the module is not correctly installed or cannot be located by the system. Please refer the methods in the following links and check if they can resolve your problem.

node.js - Cannot find module '../lib/completion' Inspite of installing Completion - Stack Overflow

I was unable to determine the cause of the issue. However, an uninstall then reinstall of gulp solved it.

Uninstall:

npm uninstall gulp --save
Re-install:

npm install gulp --save
