    I have discovered a workaround that seems to have removed the error, which can hopefully help some people in the short term. I don't think this should be necessary though - this seems to be a more fundamental issue in Power BI service?

     

    The workaround for me was to cast the (date type) field to a date type in the filter logic, for example:


    From 

    [Record Date] > DateTime.Date(DateTime.LocalNow())


    to

    DateTime.Date([Record Date]) > DateTime.Date(DateTime.LocalNow())


    Just to reiterate that [Record Date] field is already of Date type..

As these were refreshing fine before, just check if source data has been updated with bad data - Time window will be same when it start failing

Also validate if you are applying the data type change before applying the operator
