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. The user zapppsr has a good recommendation I believe would be the best. http://community.powerbi.com/t5/Service/How-to-disable-the-automatic-inline-hierarchy/m-p/62180#M12153

Here is my issue: I have Slicer data (multiple select option) to filter with Year and Month values. If I up to 8 values in the slicer, the graph looks decent if the increase the selection, the is not properly visible. I mean the thickness of the bars are becoming very thin. Can any body suggest why it is happening? Do I need to change any settings? Note: I did not change any filter setting they are all in default status. If I select 8 values from slicer, the graph looks decent, as below: If I select more than 8 values from the slicer, the graph bars are becoming when thin and not readable, as below:

Power BI cannot connect to SQL Azure servers as AAD users, only as SQL users. This puts major limitations on customers ability to properly manage access to their resources if they also want to create reports.

With the KPI visual, the Goal value is not included in the rollup when the Indicator value is 0. If the table values are: Dept Indicator Goal HR 0 2.6 IT 4 0.7 Actng 5 6.5 TOTAL 9 9.8 The KPI shows an Indicator of 9; however, the Goal shows as 7.2 instead of 9.8. It ignores the Goal when the Indicator is 0.

Since the last update the format of percentages is broken. Everywhere we see something like: 75,40,94 % , while the correct value is 75,40 %. Setting 1 decimal isnt helping. Only 0 decimals is showing the correct percentage, but that is not an option. This happend at all our customers, in every existing dashboard/report that is connected to a tabular model through the Data Gateway.

Hi Guys, I'm having a problem connecting to a SSAS Cube through the Enterprise Gateway. This is my configuration: -Windows Server 2012 R2 -SqlServer Standard 2016 (evaluation) with latest CU -No Active Directory on-premise -Power BI Enterprise Gateway installed on the same machine This is what happens: -I can connect to the SSAS cube from Excel remotely (through a vpn) -I can connect to the gateway from Power BI service -I can create a Data Source pointing to the on-premise SSAS cube (I've mapped the online user with a local user whit accessing rights to te cube) -I can successfully perform a connection test -The data source is correctly listed in "Sql Server Analysis Srvices" But when I try to "get data" connecting to the data source, I get a very generic error in this form: Servers>MultidimensionalTestBi_02 Something went wrong. Technical details: Activity ID: ... Request ID: ... Date: ... Error test: System Error Cluster URI: ... Sql Server Profiler shows exactly the same error message, not very helpful I'd say. What am I doing wrong_ Thanks.

I created a .PBIX file with a model and it has been working correctly for 3 months. Data sources are SQL Server 2014 and some Excel worksheets. After updating Power BI Desktop to the latest version, everytime I refresh the data it gives different results and they are always wrong. I have checked all the queries and the relations between tables and there have been no changes. I have also carried out tests on the data sources with SQL Management Studio and everything is correct. Everything would suggest that Power BI imports a different number of rows at each refresh (even when I press the refresh button every few seconds), but the table contains always the same (correct) number of rows. It seems that the error is an issue that involves only the Reports. What could be the reason? Do I have to fix some settings?

This may seem silly and may only be me, but I can't identify the visualization that I'm adding. In other words, the tool tip doesn't appear over the various (standard) visualizations, so when I add one to a dashboard, I don't know if I'm adding a slicer, or counter or whatever, so some sort of title bar above the property sheet identifying visualization type would be very helpful, so I don't have to try to figure out what icon is what. Using PowerBI Desktop 2.374464.602 32bit. Thanks!

I am currently able to share my Dashboard with members within my organization. I type in their email, and the "Share" button changes from a dulled out gray to bright yellow. However, when I type in an external email, I get this popup in red: "One or more email addresses are outside of your organization." The Share button remains a dull gray and un-clickable. Please advise.

I originally included the same background image on all the pages of my file. The image itself was quite large (11.2 MB). My pbix file was around 104MB. I decided to remove the background image from each page, reverting back to default, then resaved my file. Even with the image removed from all pages, the pbix file size is still 104MB. Has anyone else encountered this?
