Not Working

Most of the times Power BI works great! However, at least a couple times a day nothing works (dashboards, reports, publish to power BI, analyze in Excel). When I go to Power BI to see what the issue ...

I also haven’t seen this problem. If you still experience the same problem, please first check the Power BI Support site to see if there is any known issue as ankitpatira said. Furthermore, next time you can save some screenshots and provide your time and location which can be found in following option.

v-haibl-msft -

thanks for your reply! This morning Power BI was not working for me for no apparent reason. Tried to republish my “Finance” dataset (usually takes less than 1 minute to publish). This morning it took 42 minuites to republish! During that time I was able to publish the data set to another one of my groups without any issues (took less than a minute). This is so odd and it happens daily which makes it super frustrating!!

    I am having similar issues - Publishing takes way too long or just outright fails. I could not connect to a dashboard this morning through the web service at all - and of course during a demo to an executive VP...... I had to use the Desktop application to show the reports. This is beyond frustrating.

      I’m sure that was frustrating. I’m doing a demo with our CFO soon (in a week or two) and then the dataset I created will be shared with the rest of the company in early September. Hopefully this gets fixed soon. Very important issue.
