    Hi Joelllp

    To help us troubleshoot the error when saving to Power BI Report Server, could you please confirm:

    PBIRS version and the Power BI Desktop for RS version you are using.
    Try this quick test: Save the report locally as a .pbix file and upload it via the PBIRS web portal. Let us know if you encounter the same error during the upload.

      Hi Anonymous,

      Thanks for your response. 

      The version I now have is:
      Client: September 2025 - 2.147.1088.0 64bit
      Server: September 2025 - 1.24.9392.34333

      I also tried May2025 on another server, same issue. I downloaded the client version via the Power BI Report Server Portal using the download icon.

      If I follow your steps I get the following error:


      log:

      Throwing Microsoft.ReportingServices.Diagnostics.Utilities.AccessDeniedException: , Microsoft.ReportingServices.Diagnostics.Utilities.AccessDeniedException: The permissions granted to user %USER% are insufficient for performing this operation.;| RequestID = s_1e5f76c1-652a-4b06-9b86-7ad7d79a1f0d
