Hi @Anonymous,

 

From your description, the issue happens when you click Get Data -> Files -> Local Files in Power BI service to upload pbix file, right? 

 

In your scenario, please check if the issue happens to one specific pbix file or all pbix files. Also please check if your data storage is full and pbix file size hit limitation according to article

Thank you for the reply.

 

Yes this happens when I click Get Data -> Files -> Local Files in Power BI service to upload pbix file

 

I can not load any new file into the BI service. however I can replace old reports but cant add any new pbix reports.

 

Also I do have more then enough sppace available. currently only used 400mb of the 10gb

 

Please please help me?

Hi @Anonymous,

 

At the tenant level, total usage can’t exceed 10 GB per Pro user across all Pro users and app workspaces in the tenant. I would suggest you double confirm this. 

 

Are you able to publish from Power BI desktop, is there any error occur? 

 

Please install the Fiddler with below option enabled, then repeat steps to reproduce the issue, save all sessions and upload .saz file to your OneDrive, send the link to me in private message.

Hi @Anonymous,

 

I have found some error message from your RequestID and I'm consulting this issue internally. Will update here once I get any information. Thanks.

Hi @Anonymous,

 

I got information internally there is a limitation of 200 datasets allowed. Please remove some old datasets to free up space. Then publish new pbix files.
