Couldn’t retrieve the data for this visual
Hi David,
In my case, this turned out to be an oversight on my part...
I had gone poking around in the new Role Level Security in my Power BI Desktop file before publishing and created an empty 'New Role' which noone had access to.
Both add the users to the role in the dataset in the Power BI Service and removing / re-publishing the file has allowed sharing without issue.
May be you'll have the same simple fix - obviously a more descriptive error would have pointed me in the right direction!
Cheers,
Cody
Advocate IHi Cody,
Without looking I can only believe it is the same issue, I also have been interested in the new Role Level Security, the error suggests it authorisation issue.
Thank you for the direction, I will confirm the outcome.
Kind regards
David

Hi All,
This has been resolved, the issue was with "Role Level Security".
I created a role that restricted the report to only one county. I only had one individual in this role, but the report was not shared with him. Not sure this should have been an issue, but once the role was deleted the reports displayed correctly.
As the owner obtaining Quick insights was also affected by this, once the role was removed everything was happy.
Tread carefully with "Role Level Security"
Thanks Cody for pointing me in the correct direction.:smileyhappy:
Cheers

Hi David,
Good to hear, obviously we're not alone working our way through the Role Level Security.
I suggested to Microsoft they enhance the related error message and it's been passed up to the product team.
Cheers,

Hi,
It appears that Role level Security, without being used it defaults to everyone you have shared with having access to everything.
Once you introduce a Role that default disappears and you will need an explicite role to enable you dashboard to others
