Hey guys,
I'm having trouble publishing to power bi service, ongoing problem for 2 days now.
is it because im not a pro user?
any solutions?
Thanks,

Hi @Y3_,
Currently, when we publish a PBIX file from Desktop, publish an Excel file to Power BI service, or upload an Excel or PBIX file through Get Data in the service, the maximum file size we can import into Power BI is 1 gigabyte. So in your scenario, please check if the .PBIX file break this limitation.
If the issue is not related to file size, please try to publish the report using Get Data in Power BI to connect to and upload a Power BI Desktop file. If issue persists, please follow below steps to troubleshoot the issue:
1. Create a new .PBIX file then publish it from the Power BI Desktop.
2. Where did you want to locate this published report in Power BI service? My Workspace or Group Workspace?
Best Regards,

Please enable desktop trace log follow File->Options and settings->Options->Diagnostics to see detail error information in log. Please share it with us if possible. Also you can use Fiddler to monitor http trace.
