Hi,
I am trying to export data from a visual, it is returning a blank excel file. I tried to check the same on different reports and from different workspaces. But encountered the same problem.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi , @Agam
According to your description, when you export data to excel and you return a blank?
Do you export data by this selection?
If you select this , you may export data with live connection.
This mode need to give the credential to get the data from Power BI Service.
And for other mdoe export , i encount no error and show the data in Excel.
And if you still can not export the data , you can check if encounters some limitation:
Export data from a Power BI visualization - Power BI | Microsoft Learn
Thank you for your time and sharing, and thank you for your support and understanding of PowerBI!
Best Regards,
Aniya Zhang

Hi @v-yueyunzh-msft , is this a recent change? I don't remember exporting "Summarized Data" requiring to enable external content before.
We are facing the same issue since Wednesday
