Export underlying data not working on PBI-SSRS

[Anonymous]

The PBIX is based on a tabular model. On each of the visualisations I get the option to "See Data" which worls and  "Export Data" whihc doesn't

It asks me do i want to Save or open the whatever.csv. It diesn't matter what i do i get an erro saying whatever.csv couldn't be downloaded.. This is using localhost with localhost in the Tsuted Sites collection in IE

The settings on the SSRS instance have EnablePowerBIReportExportData set to true

Anyone have any ideas if there is somehting i need to set, look at/investigate

many thanks

Steve

Can you check the RSPowerBIXXXX.log in the following folder, and see if there are any errors:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Power BI Report Server\PBIRS\LogFiles

If there's nothing in the log you can try to open the developer console in the browser (usually F12) and see if any errors are getting logged to the console.

So there's nothing in the logs, nor is there anything showing up in my chrome debugger.

However it gets very strange. This doesn't wokr when I use localhost but it does work when I do this remotely. It also doesn't wokr using the DNS entry when on the server itself but it does work from my laptop.

So its not a bug/issue It's just that it doesn't seem to work locally on the server.
