Exported PPT only has blanks

Hi guys, looking for help on this one.

 

I just tried downloading a PPT copy of the report I made using PBI Desktop (latest version) and when I opened the PPT file, the only page that had anything on it is the title slide. I used the following visualizations if it matters:

 

  • Stacked bar chart
  • Funnel
  • Table
  • Hierarchy slicer
  • Donut chart
  • KPI
  • Card

I tried exporting the PPT without anything selected on the slicer but I still got the same result (blank content slides). I also tried exporting the other pages but it ended up just the same. I've already checked the PPT Export Limitations and it doesn't look like I did anything that ticks any of the limitations on.

 

If it means anything, when I was trying to export PPT copies yesterday, I kept getting an Error Code 500. I'm surprised that I no longer get the code today, but am getting blanks slides this time around.
