Error when dragging any Group from the Data pane towards the canvas

The error I see in the dialog is "An error occurred while rendering the report".

Repro: Right click any value in the data pane. Choose 'New Group". Create any sort of group set.

Attempt to drag the Group towards the canvas. "An error occurred while rendering the report".

Onset: happened during the last week at most.

Hi  @mharri 

I created a sample to restore your problem. Dragging the newly created Group into visual did not report the error you described. The version of Desktop I tested was 2.122.1066.0 64-bit (October 2023). You can refer to my operation. What is your test version? Any additional information you can add?

Hi @Anonymous 
I can routinely reproduce this issue (I tried this morning with a new pbix and a Kusto data source), I am using Version: 2.123.326.0 64-bit (November 2023). This issue popped up in a PBIX that I had created a few weeks ago without error, so I think it is specific to this new version.
I'm happy to demo the issue if someone can contact me.

This can also be reproduced using the Power BI sample data set called 'financials':
