Issues

Good Day, Occassionally I filter tables using a Table View to copy filtered results to use outside of Power BI - I.E. in Excel. As of today it appears that when copying the Table View that has been filtered, it ignores the filters and copies the whole table. This is an issue for me as when I have a table in excess of 700,000 rows it makes this process extremely slow to copy from Power BI, and near impossible to paste it into Excel. I have already tried uninstalling and reinstalling the program. Is anyone else experiencing this issue? As an example, we are a service company and we have a geographic alignment for our field service team. Simply, filtering a table by the "East" Region and trying to copy the table when filtered to the East is not working. Instead, the entire table is copied.

Hi, it seems like the conditional formatting based on Field Value on New Cards View is not working anymore. Below you can find a screenshot of a measure in both a Line Chart and a New Cards View. The conditional formatting work in the Line Chart View, but not in the New Cards View. Settings are the same in both visuals

Hi, After the March update (Version: 2.141.1253.0 64-bit (March 2025)), almost all of the visuals are showing errors. Here is the prompt when clicking "See details": Error fetching date for this visual An expected error occured (file " , line , function "). Hope this issue be reverted soon. Regards,

After today's update we can no longer see Snowflake views when trying to add a datasource in PBI desktop. Please fix ASAP! We have not activated the preview connector yet.

Hello, for the past few days we have noticed on the Home Page of Power BI that the App's icons in the “Recommended” section are stretched and do not respect the proportion ratio (see screenshot below). On the other hand, the App image is correctly displayed in the App list page (see screenshot below). Can you help me understand what the problem is? Regards -- Gianluca Pinelli

Today my users of a Power Bi application I build complained that the button 'looks off'. I use the Button Slicer in Power Bi, I format it to not use the callout value in the button but a label instead. In the Desktop version, no changes to this visual have been made. In the Web version, and the app, the format turned the callout value on distorting the button. I was able to correct this by editing in the web version and turning the callout value off then saving to match the desktop version. I ran a test and republished from the desktop and the callout value reset to on. Is there a resolution to this action, I think its a recent bug.

I have created a brand new, very simple data model with a single table "Sales Invoices". This table is sourced from the business central connector. *I experienced this issue in a much larger model, but have created a new one to ensure the issue is not caused by anything else in the model. If I then create a table visual and place the quantity field, it will give me a summary of the quantity for the whole table. Everything looks good. If I add a filter (to any level, visual/page/report) on the posting date, very strange things start happening. With basic filtering, I can select any number of dates that exist in the table, and the table visual will correctly sum the quantity for those dates and display it. If I change the filter to advanced, and "is" some date that I know data exists (3 feb 2025) I get but, if I add "is on or before" any date in the future (thereby not filtering anything) and include the same criteria as above as an "and" in the filter, it works. I have been trying to figure it out for hours and am having no luck. I have already - Created a new data model and replicated the issue - uninstalled and reinstalled powerbi desktop - adjusted the query to explicitly set the posting date field to date (it was already coming across as a date field) - checked all locale settings I am running PowerBI on a Parallels VM, but I have never had a problem with this for years.

Hi, I encounter a bug in PBI Desktop in custom settings for the new 'Button Slicer' visual. In Format visual - Buttons - Border it is impossible to change the color for any other than default gray. This issue affects the 'Hover' and 'Press' setting.

Description: When defining a custom Power BI theme using reportThemeSchema-2.141.json, the following settings under the visualStyles > slicer > "*" section do not behave as expected: general.selfFilterEnabled: Setting this to true has no observable effect. It is expected to enable or disable self-filtering in slicers. data.mode: Setting this to "Dropdown" does not switch the slicer visual to dropdown mode as intended. The slicer remains in its default state (typically "List"). Theme Snippet: "$schema": "reportThemeSchema-2.141.json", "visualStyles": { "slicer": { "*": { "visualHeader": [ { "show": false } ], "items": [ { "textSize": 9 } ], "general": [ { "selfFilterEnabled": true } ], "data": [ { "mode": "Dropdown" } ] } Expected Behavior: The selfFilterEnabled property should toggle the slicer's ability to self-filter. The mode: "Dropdown" property should set the default slicer layout to dropdown when applying the theme. Actual Behavior: Neither setting has any effect on the slicer visual when the theme is applied. All other settings in the same visualStyles block (such as textSize and visualHeader.show) work correctly. Request: Clarify whether selfFilterEnabled and data.mode are officially supported in visualStyles for slicers. If supported, please investigate why these properties are being ignored. If not supported, please update the documentation or consider supporting them in future schema versions.

Dear Team Support )! Power BI Desktop "Copy table" and "Copy Column" in Table view doesn't work any more I used "Copy table" in Table view, and tried to paste on Excel, but the table wasn't copied.

I encountered a scenario in Power BI where Row-Level Security (RLS) can be bypassed due to a combination of referential integrity (RI) violations, allowing unauthorized access to data. This issue arises in specific RLS setups where: The RLS table filters data using ProductID and UPN (email/user). The relationship model introduces a bridge table, and security is applied through relationships with Apply security filter in both directions enabled. There is incomplete referential integrity (i.e., not all ProductIDs exist in all tables involved). This model grants access to data the user should not see. My Observation If a user has RLS access to any product that is part of the RI violation (i.e., it does not exist in the bridge table or product dimension), Power BI unexpectedly grants access to other products beyond their RLS scope - including products they are not authorized to see. Repro Steps 1. RLS Table (User Permissions) UPN ProductID alice@example.com 1001 bob@example.com 1002 bob@example.com 1003 charlie@example.com 1004 charlie@example.com 1006 diana@example.com 1005 diana@example.com 1006 diana@example.com 1001 2. Bridge Table (ProductBridge) ProductID 1001 1002 1003 1004 3. Product Dimension Table (Products) CategoryID CategoryName BrandID BrandName ProductID ProductName ProductColor 1 Electronics 101 Sony 1001 Headphones Black 2 Appliances 102 Samsung 1002 Microwave Silver 3 Furniture 103 IKEA 1003 Table Brown 4 Clothing 104 Zara 1004 Jeans Blue 5 Sports 105 Nike 1005 Soccer Ball White 6 Toys 106 Lego 1006 Brick Set Multicolor 7 Books 107 Penguin 1007 Notebook Yellow 4. Model Setup (see attached diagram): RLS → ProductBridge (many-to-one, both directions, security filter ON) ProductBridge → Products (one-to-many, single directions) 5. Tested Role Logic: RLS Role: RLS[UPN] = USERPRINCIPALNAME() Test Case: User: diana@example.com Expected access: Products: 1001 (only one that exists in the bridge table) Actual access: Products: 1001, 1005, 1006, 1007 (!) User: charlie@example.com Expected access: Products: 1004 Actual access: Products: 1004, 1005, 1006, 1007 It appears that once a user has access to any product not found in the bridge table, the relationship chain breaks in such a way that the entire "missing" portion of the Product table is exposed, ignoring RLS enforcement altogether. This suggests the RLS filter is not safely handling RI violations — rather than blocking or excluding such records, Power BI seems to allow overly permissive access through broken links. P.S. I would like to provide a Power BI report file demonstrating the issue, but I haven’t figured out how to do that yet - the platform indicates that .pbix and .zip file types are not supported for upload. P.P.S. Please don’t suggest resolving this issue by simply fixing the referential integrity violations in the data. I fully understand the importance of maintaining RI to ensure consistent and accurate results. However, this report is not about bad data hygiene — it’s about how RLS behaves when RI is broken, intentionally or unintentionally.

I'm struggling to be able to work efficiently with Dataflows as I am experiencing excessive times to 'validate' queries after pressing the 'Save & Close' button. For entities with even a minimal amount of transformation (eg. simply changing some column data types) I've experienced wait times of over 3 hours to simply save the query to exit out back to the main entity menu/view. Should things be taking this long for an output schema validation process, regardless of the size of the underlying table data? Is this an issue being experienced by others as well? This is making it simply impossible for me to work with the Dataflows product in this way.

Is anyone else having issues with power BI reports not loading? If I go to the webservice, I just get the 'Almost Done' message and it looks like the report is loading but it never does.

Simple SQL query that runs 7 seconds in SQL takes 19 minutes(!) to validate in Dataflows 19 minutes!!!??? Not just one query. I've tried SQL Server and PostgreSQL - the time it takes to Validate is just crazy. What is going on? Please help

Hello, Since last friday i'm with some issues in refresh my datasets. Most of the the refreshes that we try returns an internal error: Error: Internal error Request ID: ad8067f3-103b-4cde-a815-9869e2a3f98c Activity ID: 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000 My dataflows are connected to Google BigQuery, with Powerbi Connector, and this never happened in the past. the error always happens at different refresh times, different entities, and happens on all the Dataflows we have on the server on the various PRO accounts. Do you have any idea of what is happening for this error

Hello, since the new ribbon interface was rolled out, my Power BI Desktop Pro is completely unresponsive and keeps freezing. I cannot minimise, maximise, or move the window at all. The ribbon is completely unresponsive. Occassionally, it will randomly unfreeze, only to re-freeze. This is affecting all my reports. I cannot get any work done. This is an issue with PowerBI and not my system, I have the latest Core i7 with 32Gb of system memory on Windows 10. All my other apps are fine. It was working fine before the new interface was rolled out. Any help would be appreciated, particularly on how I can roll this back to the previous version.

Hi, The new light theme pane is giving me headaches. I do not think you should have released the June 2019 Update with the light theme without a dark one. It is really hard for me to read and impacting my work. Please send out a patch with the old pane while you are developing the dark theme.
