Refresh Fails - Operation Cancelled By User

 

 

I've been getting this error all of a sudden.

My personal gateway status indicates that it is connected.

 

I'm not cancelling anything, at least intentionally.

My data set comes from an excel workbook with a data model built with PowerQuery and loaded into the PowerPivot data model.

The workbook is stored on my OneDrive.

 

Any ideas?

Quick follow up here:

 

Some of the data in a particular column were #NA when the data type of the column was all text.

I had fixed that issue and immediatley tried to refresh with now luck.

 

After posting this issue, my refresh works...go figure.

 

I believe this error was a result of the #NA in the data and it seems there is just a bit of a lag between the fix, upload, and refresh capability of PowerBI.

I tried to look for #NA values in my data set with no luck.  I too keep getting this error.  And I don't even know how to cancel a refresh (can you even do that?)

 

Something went wrong.

We are seeing this error too.  Our circumstance is that we are connecting to a SharePoint Online list and the direct query is failing almost immediately.  In Power BI desktop, the query runs, albeit very slowly.   This has been happening over the last week or so.  Please advise if this is a bug or not.
