Power Query (Desktop): unavailable Group By button, missing File menu, no quick access bar

Submitted on ‎09-26-2024 09:44 PM Submitted by on ‎09-26-2024 09:44 PM
Hello With the latest update (sep/24) of Power BI Desktop (My version is: 2.136.1202.0 64-bit) I have several issues in Power Query   First, the Group By button is unavailable in ANY case  (Of course, I can do grouping with the M function, but...)   Second, the File menu is missing. Really, I'm not sure if this is an issue but in any case I don't have the Save button, for example   And last (at the moment), I've lost the quick access bar . And of course I can't add any button to the quick access bar.   (A few days ago, I had the same problems. I checked the version and it said October/24 😳. But later, it was automatically reversed. But now again I have the same issues)   Thanks in advance for your help and attention         ... View more

Semantic Model Edit Tables Glitch

Hi all , 

Microsoft Fabric Support and Status | Microsoft Fabric

According to feedback on Microsoft Fabric support, the issue will have a fix deployed by the Mid to late September.
The current solution is: Customers will need to manually modify the query in the Advanced Editor by adding a record as the last parameter. Change the query from: Dynamics365BusinessCentral.ApiContentsWithOptions(null, null, null, null) to: Dynamics365BusinessCentral.ApiContentsWithOptions(null, null, null, [UseReadOnlyReplica = true])

Hi @Analyst-Rene 

This one belongs to the October version of the feature. Due to a previous release of the wrong version of the Microsoft app store, it caused PBI Desktop to automatically update some features that currently don't work well for it. So you need to uninstall the current version and go to Microsoft Download Center to download the installer and reinstall it.

Paginated reports embedded into Sharepoint unable to get past sign in button

Submitted on ‎08-06-2024 08:19 AM Submitted by on ‎08-06-2024 08:19 AM
Good morning,   We launched a sharepoint site with pages that have embedded Power BI Paginated reports. It was working fine through launch in July until the morning of 8/5. Starting on 8/5, when users click Sign in it spawns a new browser tab which immediately dissapears. After the new tab goes away, the sign in button persists. Example: What's interesting is that before 8/5, we don't recall the 'Open in new tab' option being present. When you click Open in new tab, the url contains this string at the end: "&clientSideAuth=0&fallbackError=%7B%22flow%22%3A%22Rdlembed%22%2C%22source%22%3A%22System%22%2C%22info%22%3A%22redirect_in_iframe%3A+Code+flow+is+not+supported+inside+an+iframe.+Please+ensure+you+are+using+MSAL.js+in+a+top+frame+of+the+window+if+using+the+redirect+APIs%2C+or+use+the+popup+APIs.+%28window.parent+%21%3D%3D+window%29+%3D%3E+true%22%2C%22code%22%3A%22redirect_in_iframe%22%7D" Any ideas?

SQL Connection - "0 - The certificate chain was issued by an authority that is not trusted."

Submitted on ‎02-19-2024 05:20 AM Submitted by Advocate I on ‎02-19-2024 05:20 AM
Following update to "Version: 2.126.927.0 64-bit (February 2024)" I can now nolonger connect to a particular slq server.   Microsoft SQL: A connection was successfully established with the server, but then an error occurred during the login process. (provider: SSL Provider, error: 0 - The certificate chain was issued by an authority that is not trusted.)   This is not my server and it does not support encryption.  Until now I have been able to turn off encryption and have not had any SQL Certificate Chain errors.   I can still connect with the same settings via SSMS.  I don't think I can try things like trustcertificate in the connection string with PowerBI.   Has anyone a solution to this or any reports that this is a bug to be addressed would be much appreciated.   Thanks   Craig     ...

"Query Folding" error after Desktop update

Hello.  We are having an issue with new versions of Power BI desktop.  We are using direct query to connect to our data.  Reports that have been working fine for several months are now showing the "query folding" error when we try to run them.  This happens when we updated to the June 2024 release of desktop.   This is a pretty big bug as it breaks all our reports.  We were able to roll back to the May version, but I'm worried this will continue to  be broken in subsequent releases.   ...

May 2024 Report Server Does not support Maxtrix Layout options in May 2024 Desktop for Report Server

Submitted on ‎06-27-2024 07:03 AM Submitted by on ‎06-27-2024 07:03 AM
We recently upgraded to May 2024 for Power BI Report Server (both server and desktop software) and we're running into a bug. Maxtrixes are not allowing us to use the Tabular or Outline formatting when published. They look fine in desktop, but once published on the server, they look like the default Matrix layout (compact). I submitted a forum post about this issue with images here: https://community.fabric.microsoft.com/t5/Report-Server/Matrix-Format-Changes-When-Published-to-Power-BI-Report-Server/m-p/4011241#M35650    I'm including the link because this page is not allowing me to upload all the images. Other users on that thread were also able to recreate the issue.    If you use an older version of the Desktop for Report Server (like January 2024), turn off stepped layout on a matrix, then save it to the May 2024 Report Server, the formatting is maintained. I think the actual server is still looking for that stepped layout option, but the associated desktop software is using the new Tabluar/Outline/Compact language.    ... View more

Being prompted for credentials each time I open Power BI desktop version 2.117.894 and later

Submitted on ‎07-12-2023 10:26 AM Submitted by Advocate I on ‎07-12-2023 10:26 AM
Running a VM with 2 processors and 32 GB of RAM Windows Server 2016 standard 64-bit Version 1607 OS Build 14393.5501 Everytime I open Power BI Desktop I'm being promtped to re-enter my login credentials... This appears to have started on 2.117.894 which was found after some testing. This is incredibly frustrating and annoying as I need to enter my full e-mail/AD password (multiple times) and also authenticate via Ping ID every time I open Power BI desktop. Previous version did not have this issue and functioned as expected caching the credentials, allowing me to open a new Power BI desktop window without needing to re-authenticate every time. I have installed previous version of Power BI but am unable to open and .pbix file I edited in a more recent version... the following list is the versions tested to document when the issues started to occur: 2.115.663 - not re-prompted to login each time, user image shows up, pbix files do not load 2.116.622 - not re-promptedto login each time, user image shows up, pbix files do not load 2.116.996 - not re-prompted to login each time, user image shows up, pbix files do not load 2.117.894 and after - re-prompted for login each time, user image does not show up, pbix files load The "user image" is simply my avatar that is set on office365 for my user account within my company None of the labels made sense for this issue, but I was required to add one. ...

Unable to move NEW tables in model view

I have a PBIX file with ~30 tables and with multiple data tables and support tables. I've recently run into an issue when I add a NEW table to the report, it puts it in the top left corner and I'm unable to move it.

Column / Calculated Table Rename Bug

Submitted on ‎02-29-2024 08:43 AM Submitted by Advocate II on ‎02-29-2024 08:43 AM
Recently / within the last one or two weeks while modifying reports, I have run into a bug where I'm modifying a calculated column and try to save the changes and I get an error saying  "Rename Column   The name 'X' is already used for a column the table 'y'. Choose a different name."    I'm modifying any column that already exists, so I cannot save any changes on that column.  Even worse: if I go to the formula for a calculated table, I try to change or leave the formula box without making any changes, and it gives me this same error about the table name, and it breaks the table completely. I have to quit the application and reopen from my last save.    This doesn't happen every time I open a report, thankfully, but it's happening to me maybe once every other day randomly - I haven't been able to figure out what specific set of circumstances is causing it to happen unfortunately.  ...
