I have several data sets published to the PBI service that reference a single Azure database and are scheduled to refresh daily via an enterprise gateway. After a number of weeks, the dashboards associated with one of the data sets now flashes the Pro Content warning when I attempt to share and non-pro users are not able to access. I'm able to share dashboards associated with the other data sets without issue. Additionally, if I republish the problem data set under a new name, and schedule an identical daily refresh, the problem goes away and non-pro users can view without issue. Please help me to understand the inconsistency around pro license requirement. ... View more

I'm importing a csv file that has a header record with some text on when it's created, and a trailer record stating the amount of rows. It imports fine in Excel 2013. PowerBI desktop could do an "untouched" text import, with all lines intact, allowing me to remove header and trailer records, and then split the column using CSV-style splitting on Comma, and keeping all data between "" (including carriage returns) in one field. Again, this worked before, and still works in Excel 2013, but today's version of PowerBI Desktop is hell-bent on interpreting the imported textfile with a delimiter, also when I change the filename to a .TXT extension (from .csv). Even if I set a custom delimiter of '&^^&#' or so, it still screws up the carriage return between "". I now work around this by importing into Excel first, but it adds manual steps to my workflow. Can you please unbreak the import features? PS I note that I have a PBIX-file that I created in the past and I refresh each week that also does this to another CSV file, and that one still works. So I conclude the wizard-to-code is broken, not the importcode itself. ... View more

One of my published reports (with scheduled refresh) is completely blank. All of the visuals have blank values. However, if you browse the dataset, all the data still seems to be ok. If I manually publish the same report, without enabling autorefresh, my visuals all work perfectly. ... View more

Dear PowerBI, Absolutely loving this tool! I think i found a bug though. In my report I display my slicers horizontally in order to make them fit better in the screen. After publishing the report to the internet, I've copied the HTML it has generated and pasted it in my SharePoint site. Everything is working great, except for the slicers now being shown vertically. Kind regards, Guust ... View more

Hi, If I have data in a csv file it imports nicely. ColumnA,ColumnB "R1C1","R1C2" The first issue is that if I swap the columns around and get data again I am prompted to override the existing the dataset, the columns are ignored and the data is imported as though it is the original file - no warnings. ColumnB,ColumnA "R1C2","R1C1" "R2C2","R2C1" Imports as ColumnA,ColumnB "R1C2","R1C1" "R2C2","R2C1" The second issue is that if I then add ColumnC, Get Data again, I am once again prompted to override the existing dataset. This time however it says that there is an error and the data is then lost. Surely at that point you should be given the option to undo the change?

A Recent update to the online service has changed the way fields are displayed when using the drilling down all functionality. For my scenario I have distributors, reps and customers. When I use the drill down all function the chart now shows distributor rep customer all in one line. This is way too much text for a chart and we don't need this functionality for this chart. This issue doesn't happen in desktop but only when I publish to the web. Please help i'm getting multiple complaints on this topic. For more info and other users having similar issues you can see the ideas forum link below.
