Hello,
I am extracting data from the business central, MS Dynamics and realised that it takes over an hour to refresh a given amount of data.
Please advise me on how to reduce loading time or boost speed.
Thank you
Hello @Anonymous,
Would it be possible to post your M code here? In addition, there are a few optimizations to your code. Basically, however, I would recommend mapping your query as a dataflow in Power BI Service.
In the screenshot I have marked steps that can be optimized or summarized if necessary. In addition, the query time also depends on the performance of the PC (CPU, RAM, network) and the Power Query options.
If my post helped you, please give me a 👍kudos and mark this post with Accept as Solution.
Best regards from Germany
