Power BI Report Server September 2022 Issues

Hi josef78, 

I am pleased to bring good news today. We investigated all of the listed issues, please see details below. 

1) ODBC connector failing if data source contains text column with text length greater then 512 characters (with Error: ODBC: SUCCESS_WITH_INFO [01004])

The issue was fixed and the fix will be included in the planned QFE release for PBIRS September. ETA for the release is in December, before Christmas holidays. 

Workaround: to refresh data through PBI Desktop for RS (I understand it is not a good workaround for cases when you have many reports, or need to refresh often, but it is the way that can help to refresh) 

2) Custom visuals not working in new reports when saved from Power BI Desktop September 2022 

This issue was fixed as well and fix is coming in QFE. There is a workaround which you can use until the fix is released: 

Add a URL parameter to the URL: ?consumePublicCvsWithoutRps=1, and visuals will start working 

for example: http://servername/Reports/powerbi/reportname?consumePublicCvsWithoutRps=1

3) Not able to save paginated reports subscriptions schedule based on weekdays 

The issue is fixed and fix is coming in the QFE 

Workaround: use shared schedules 

4) Little performance drop after upgrade to September 2022

We investigated this complaint and tried to reproduce it, but we didn't observe the performance drop. We'll keep an eye on this one. 

5) UX issues with data slicer visual

The issue was identified, and now it's being worked on. Unfortunately, fix for this one will not be included in the coming QFE, but we will aim to fix in for January 2023 release. 

Thanks,

Alexandra
