Query Refresh - Evaluating forever

I have an Oracle Database Query which takes about 40 minutes to run in SQL Developer as it is complex. Up until a couple of days ago there was no problem in Power BI. Now the query gets to Refresh - Evaluating and never completes. I have left it running for two and a half hours and still stays on Evaluating. I see that similar questons have been asked before. Does anyone know how to get passed the Evaluating stage?
