Any clue what's the issue? I refreshed again and it still gives me this error.
refreshing works on Power BI Desktop but not on service.

Hi @CarlaGh ,
This can happen with large data volume that lead to high update frequency. you need reduce the data load and assure that Power BI will not load the model file while it is refreshed at the same time.
For more details, you can refer to:
