Hi,
I am getting this error when I am trying to use Cognitive Service from Power BI Service. Data is in a text file in Sharepoint.

Hi @Ikramul_Islam ,

 

The workaround to this issue is by enabling the Fast Combine feature within Power Query.  Before adding any of the AI features, you will need to go into the Options => Project Options => Enable "Allow combining data from mutliple datasources."  By default the switch is off, and it needs to be set to on to avoid these types of issues.  See the picture below:
