Save Report to Secure (HTTPS) Server
So, in my continued exploration of my issue, I learned that .PBIX is essentially a zip file. With my experience in being able to upload anything but a .PBIX named file I also tried a .zip file and that was blocked as well. (as did many other made up file extensions)
I am curious to know if perhaps there is some filter somewhere that is only allowing known file types and .PBIX is falling over because said filter is seeing them as either a) a .zip file in disguise or b) it does not know what it is and therefore is blocking it.

There is a whitelist of known file types that PBIRS will allow (you can edit this list by connecting to PBIRS using Management Studio), but pbix is one of the allowed file types. zip files and other random file types being blocked is the expected behaviour.
As I mentioned earlier, pbix files are handled by a dedicated service, so they are treated differently from any other file type. I still suspect that something strange has happened in your environment and the best way to fix this would be to engage a Microsoft support engineer by raising a support ticket.
Okay new development, when I remove the certificate / 443 configuration uploading a file on the host server works. However with adding the cert back in, even using the port 80 url causes the error to come up agian.
