Hi @tayloramy 

the message is vague, it said "issue with the connection" - however internet is working... so I am not sure which setting i need to check still.

Hi @SgCC, 

That is helpful, thanks. You are getting a PowerBIAnonymousArbitraryDaxExpressionException error. 

This error usually means you used a public “Publish to web” embed code and the report contains something anonymous viewers aren’t allowed to run - most often report-level DAX measures (thin report measures) or other features that force the service to execute “arbitrary” DAX for an anonymous user. Publish to web blocks those.

Publish to web from Power BI - Power BI | Microsoft Learn

Some ideas to fix it: 

• If you need the page to be public: remove report-level measures from the report and put them into the underlying dataset, then republish. Also make sure the report is Import (not DirectQuery/Live) and isn’t using a shared model from another workspace- all of these are unsupported for Publish to web.

• If you can require sign-in: switch to Embed report -> Website or portal (secure embed) or publish an app. Secure embed respects dataset measures, RLS, etc., and doesn’t have the Publish-to-web limitations. Microsoft Learn

• If this is for external, unauthenticated users but you need full features: use Power BI Embedded (app owns data) and render with an embed token instead of a public link. Microsoft Learn
