Hi @Naresh07 ,

More details will be much helpful.

Which data source and which connect mode do you use?

In addition, if it is convenient, could you share the data sample which could reproduce the scenario so that we could have a test on it.

Besides, please check if you have installed the latest version of Power BI Desktop.

Best Regards,
Community Support Team _ Caitlyn
