Error creating local model running PowerBI Desktop via Parallels VM

[stephan_jacob]

Team, I am running PowerBI Desktop on a Mac via Parallels VM on Windows 11. All works great, except that I can't seem to be able to create local models of our datasets, see error below:



 Detailed error below:

Hi @stephan_jacob 

Can you make sure you have permission to access this dataset? If not in Parallels VM, but in your physical machine, can you use this dataset to create a report?

Best Regards,

hi @Anonymous thanks for your note! 

So I am logged in/authenticated with PowerBI/Microsoft both in the PBI Desktop app (on the VM) and in the browser (on the VM). I can access the dataset and run reports in both environments... so I am assuming I have full permissions but running into the error below when I hit 'Transform data', which prompts me to create a local model as shown in the screenshot above. 

Not sure where to go from here.

Thank you!

@Anonymous any other ideas? Thank you!
