Power BI Refresh Issue with Business Central Data Source

[govind_021]

Hi Everyone,
I'm reaching out to check if anyone else is experiencing issues with Business Central as a data source for Power BI reports.
Lately, my report refreshes are either timing out or taking up to 2 hours to complete.

I've already tried most common optimization techniques, but the problem still persists.
Is anyone else facing similar issues, or has any insight into what's going on?

Thanks in advance!

Hey @govind_021,

Business Central’s OData can get slow with large datasets or joins, consider breaking out your model or using incremental refresh if you're in Premium workspace.
