Hello All, @Petebro,
Today one of my users informed me that she can't upload .xlsb file on our Report Server. She uploads this report every week, so I can see that all previous versions have .xlsb extension. We upgraded to September 2021 last Sunday so it looks that this is the reason. Can I change it somehow? I tried to change AllowedResourceExtensionsForUpload parameter but without success.
Regards,
Marcin
Solved! Go to Solution.
This was changed in September release as part of hardening around files being uploaded to Power BI Report Server. I will follow up with PM team to figure out if this will be supported again in the future or continue to be blocked. In the meantime xlsx should work if the workbook is convered. I understand there are reasons for xlsb vs xlsx but this will be a workaround while we discuss the issue.
Just wanted to close the loop on this. We will provide an update to September version of PBIRS to address this. XLS XLSB and CSV have been mistakenly blocked from upload. No news on the date of this patch, but it will be addressed before the January PBI RS update.

Hi @Icey,

Thanks for your quick response. I've already advised using .xlsx files instead .xlsb and asked if .xlsb is really indispensable for this particular report.
