Data Flow Gen1 ODataService Errors

Hello,

i use multiple Dataflows Gen1 to red Data from an OData Service of our local ERP System.

 

Now i have a OData serivce where im not able to load the data. I don't know if the data of this ODataService is simply to big or there are other solutions.

 

The Tables i want to load have around 60 to 80 thousand rows and 200 Collumns.

 

I get errors in Datflow like:

 

-Unable to complete the request. Please retry again later, and if this issue recurs, check your network, proxy, vpn, or firewall configuration or contact your network administrator.

-Unable to read data from the transport connection: The connection was closed

-Unable to read data from the transport connection: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.

-Request failed: The remote server returned an error: (500) Internal Server Error. (Internal Server Error)

 

One Table is aaccessible, but it has only 8 thousand rows and the 200 collumns.

 

Interesting is:

 

I can load the ODataServices Excel, takes up to 15 minute with 400-500 MB

I can Preview data in Power BI Dektop Quety Editor, but can't load it into report
(Error: No Data could be read from source: Connection was closed)

 

Does someone has expierence with those issues or is my data just to big for ODataService in Dataflow Gen1?

Hi @LuITS ,

Thanks for reaching out to the Microsoft fabric community forum.

 

 

To troubleshoot ODataService errors in Power BI Dataflow Gen1, start by reducing the data size using select to limit columns and filter to limit rows, then try splitting the data into smaller chunks  to isolate load failures. Test small subsets in Power BI Desktop to confirm stability and identify thresholds. Ensure the on-premises data gateway is installed, updated, and not being blocked by firewall, VPN, or proxy settings. Check whether the OData service supports pagination via @odata.nextLink, and verify backend limits on payload size, timeout, or throttling with your ERP or network admin.
