Exporting to Power BI Desktop reports with large imported dataset
has somebody faced the issue when [Exporting to Power BI Desktop] is not finishing long time. I do see the message "Your report is exporting to pbix", however I've been waiting 2 more hours but nothing.
Is it possible to donwload template for this report, or report without data from Power BI service?

Hi OOmelenchuk,
I would suggest uploading a small simple report to your Workspace that you could use to verify that it isn't some small detail such as inside your browser settings that is keeping you from downloading the report.
I know for larger files with larger datasets it takes longer to download these reports.
After being able to successfully download a simple report then I woudl suggest it might be something wrong inside the file keeping the file from being downloaded.

Hi Anonymous, I did all mentioned things, once i was able to download 300M of data with a report, small reports are downloaded well. The problem that I don't have reports(and templates) on my machine, and I try to load themto modify.

How big is the report, both in content and data size (assuming it's an import)? I had a 5-tab, 75MB report take two hours.
If multiple people need access to the PBIX, why not keep it hosted on a Dropbox/Google Drive/OneDrive and access it from there?
