Hello, Starting today, Power BI Desktop freezes every time I try to save.  This happend to me and at least one other colleague. The freezing does not prevent the saving itself so far, but I need to restart Power BI Desktop after each time I save my Report.   Has anyone had a similar issue so far or any suggestion to resolve it? ...

We regularly use the GetAppUsersAsAdmin  API endpoint to obtain a list of users that have access to an App.   With the new App experience and addition of 'Audiences' ,  is there or will there be a way to differentiate which users belong to which audience, because currently we just see a list of all users for the app regardless of the audience they belong to?   ...

Publishing a power BI desktop file to power BI service, in an attempt to overwrite an existing dataset/report doesn't work whenever you might have switched on the toggle of OneDrive refresh.   Turning of the toggle doesn't solve the issue.   Reported issues, claimed to be resolved by the product team, continue to cause big issues: Cannot disable OneDrive refresh - Microsoft Power BI Community. This result in a status where it is impossible to adjust a dataset/report. (Even though Microsoft is pushing towards full parity of power BI desktop into the cloud, currently we can't fully work in the browser as not all functionality of power BI desktop has been added in the browser.)   The only unacceptable workaround appears to delete your dataset/report in the service and publish a new one.   Let me elaborate some of the consequences of deleting the dataset/report:   need to re-pin visuals to dashboards RLS/OLS needs to be reconfigured related reports/datasets are broken (hybrid reports, reports on the same datasets, etc.) all reports directly or indirectly related to this dataset that are pinned in Microsoft Teams are broken Deep Links (with filters in the URL) to every report related directly/indirectly to this dataset are broken all people's bookmarks to related reports/datasets are broken integrations of power BI reports in PowerApps are broken integration in Excel Custom data types are broken (featured tables) integration of power BI in Power Automate are broken, automation of processes thus are broken all external systems sending API requests to that dataset are broken metrics are broken report usage metrics are gone power BI comments are gone integration with Synapse Analytics is broken e-mail subscriptions on the reports are broken alerts on Card/Gauge visual are broken everything else I forgot about is broken!  Let it be very clear: the impact of deleting just a simple report/dataset can be huge. Huge work in fixing stuff, huge in disruption for the business with a many power BI users. Currently we're not updating our power BI reports and datasets, which also is impacting our business operations!   All power BI users are facing this issue and many are complaining about it: https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Service/Couldn-t-publish-to-power-BI-already-exists-and-is-set-up-w... https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Developer/Publish-of-update-fails-with-error-about-cloud-refresh/m-... https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Service/Cannot-quot-overwrite-quot-You-already-have-a-dataset-named... https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Developer/Publish-of-update-fails-with-error-about-cloud-refresh/m-...   The product team should fix this and have admins the possibility of disabling OneDrive refresh all together for the entire tenant. Simply moving one .pbix file in SharePoint (seeming unharmful) can trigger unrepairable/irreversible consequences.    I have raised a support ticket for this issue, but power BI support has been unable to solve this open ticket for more than 5 days.   Please vote, and raise awareness of this BUG. This must be fixed! ... View more

Hello Team,   I noticed many users faced this error "Unsupported Table name " Measures" has been found in model schema" after   the Power BI February update, it has some new validation that will prevent opening your pbix files if you've previously created a table named " Measures" with the space in front (using [ Measures]=  )     one current solution found by Stephanie Bruno is that: To solve this, you'll have to download an older version of desktop (I used November), open your pbix file and rename the table, and save. Then you'll be able to open it in the latest version again. You can get older versions here: https://lnkd.in/enrn8cQZ    link to Her post on linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/brunostephanie_previous-monthly-updates-to-power-bi-desktop-activity-7299801245962194945-Li_n?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop&rcm=ACoAAB6cItsB17Ovl3CRReulA7ZfV6CaNMQQzR4    ...

Hi,   After rebooting my company laptop this morning I haven't been able to change the source within the data source settings for semantic model connections in Power BI Desktop. Whenever I click 'Change Source' a new 'hidden' pop-up window appears in my taskbar, but I can't see it anywhere, and it only appears as a white empty window in the task bar. I can however connect to a "new" semantic model without any issues, the issue only exists when trying to change the connection for an exisitng semantic model.   I can see that Power BI Desktop was updated to the newest version (Version: 2.134.7447.1 64-bit (October 2024)) after the reboot, as part of the company's auto update policies. As such, I strongly assume that this new update brought along the issue, as no security updates has been deployed this week by my company's InfoSec team. Furthermore, a team member with an older version of Power BI Desktop is not facing this issue.                                                       This issue is preventing us from testing updates to semantic models on reports in Power BI Desktop, effectively blocking our weekly deployment.   Any help here would be much appreciated.   Thank you,  ...

Since February 26, 2025, the traffic light colors in my published Power BI report are no longer displayed. The traffic lights appear black, whereas they show correctly in Power BI Desktop. These KPIs have remained unchanged for the past three years and were added via Tabular Editor 2 as 'Traffic Light - Single' status graphics.   It seems that the recent update to the Power BI Service Gateway (February 2025) may be affecting the display of the KPIs in the published report. I’m wondering if anyone else has experienced the same issue after this update, and if there is a solution. For more details on the update, see: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/on-premises-data-gateway-february-2025-release/   Thanks in advance for your help! ... View more

Hi all   I have just come across what I think is a bug in the relationships view of PBI Desktop.    When I drag the primary key from one table to the key field of another table to establish a relationship (which has always worked) I get the standard popup for 'New Relationship'. However on both tables it says 'A preview of this table isn't available' which is strange as the tables are pretty simple. there is no message as to why   When i set the settings for the relationship, i tick the 'Make this relationship active' button and it doesn't provide any feedback as to it being unsuccessful, then I press 'Save'. I get the 'Working on it' and spinning wheel, but nothing happens, the relationship does not establish.   What i realised is there is in fact ambiguous relationships as a result, so that relationship I was trying to make can't work, once I removed those other relationships, I was able to successfully establish the intended new relationship. However, troubleshooting this took me an extra bit of time to work out, where as previously PBI told me that immediately.   In short - it seems there is no live relationship checking prior to saving the relationship. ...

After the Nover 11 2024 update occurred,  all my projects are giving me a circular dependency errors when I first open them.  The Projects still open, but I have no clue what I might need to fix or what this is affecting.  I believe it may have to do with a DAX calculated date table using CALENDARAUTO(), but not 100% sure - An example of the error is shown below.    I rolled back to October update and everything opens fine, no errors. Please fix this issue for us asap.  I've seen posts about this on redit as well   Example:   Thanks   ... View more

I upgraded a workspace today to check out the new Multiple Audience experience.  This impacted EVERY workspace/app in my organization and there is no way to switch back!   Unfortunately, I see there are a lot of open bugs with this experience that may cause serious issues for app publishers within my tenant!   Can you please provide ability to switch back the organization away from the Preview? Can you provide ability to switch back individual workspaces? ... View more

When using a combo chart, I tried to apply a conditional color to the bars. This works fine and the bars appear colored correctly. However, the legend then shows the wrong color (in this case blue, the first color in the Power BI theme color palette.) This makes it really confusing for the user since the legend shows a color that's not even on the chart.   In the first screenshot, I manually set the column color to yellow, prior to enabling conditional formatting:   Then I apply conditional formatting with a rule. The bars are now the correct color, but the legend color defaults back to blue (first color in color palette):   PBIX link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1orauvk1BXefZpKmWp_0KWzvPmJama8Nj/view?usp=sharing   ...

Adding conditional formatting to dynamically format the color of the x- or y-axis labels does not work. In the screenshot below, note that the conditional formatting applied to the Y-Axis of the bar chart should change the axis value color to pink only if the [Total Amount] is greater than 100. However it applies the pink color to all axis values.   Here's a link to the PBIX file: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1udNYuZN8OdrUyUTkT_lQsAWoBwxxq7L7/view?usp=sharing     This has been a bug since conditional formatting for visual elements was added across the board. The rationale explained in other forum posts is that the label does not have filter context, but this seems like a scape goat as it should have as much filter context as the actual chart data point itself.   See https://community.fabric.microsoft.com/t5/Custom-Visuals-Development/Conditional-formatting-color-on-x-axis-label/m-p/2860996#M6095)   Or https://community.fabric.microsoft.com/t5/Desktop/Conditional-formatting-of-X-axis-values/m-p/2675894#M937497 ...

Good news first: It looks like with the February update, this issue was resolved: New card visual bug ...  But sadly now there's a new issue with the visual, this time it's the custom formatting of the Reference Labels.     Some operations are causing the whole visual to throw the above error "Repeated indices found in GroupBy or Projections". In my case it happens every time I am adding a custom format rule for Reference Label > Detail > Font Color / Color. This is only the case when the same field is used for the formatting rule like as for the data of the detail field itself.   ... View more

I have report which uses a composite data model, with a mix between DirectQuery to other Power BI datasets and some imported tables from SQL Server. The model also uses calculation groups, allthough I do not think this is related to the issue.   The data model also has RLS, and I can test this in desktop and it works as intended.  However, when I publish the report to the service and I want to "test as role", I get the following error message. Is this a bug, or is "test as role" really not supported for a composite model? ... View more

Hi,  I posted about this in the forums and seems like more than me are seeing the same issu.    The new button slicer keeps resetting to the left most button even though it is saved in another state.  As an example I have a report with year filter (year from date table) and timeperiod filter (calculation group), I have it saved as 2023 and YTD but when closing and reopening the report it is set to 2022 and MTD. Same behavior in service.       Br  Adrian ... View more
