Cannot upload PBIX with embedded data to Report Server
Hi, I installed the October release of PBIRS and attempted to save a report on the Report server using embedded data but I get the following error: "There was an error uploading your .pbix file....
The issue was eventually resolved by adding the "NT SERVICE\PowerBIReportServer" account. I am nnot sure where this was mentioned in the instructions - if someone can point it would be useful. Thanks.
I had the same issue with the Nov 2017 release of Desktop (2.52.4921.461), and using the Nov 2017 release of the Power BI Server.
Did not have issues with the Oct 2017 release of Desktop paired with Nov 2017 Server so I downloaded the Oct release again (from here: https://zenatti.net/2017/07/04/power-bi-previous-versions/), re-saved my pbix files and then uploaded successfully.
Appears to be an issue with the Nov Desktop release. Sorry, but I don't time to add any more info.
