Hi @Simomazzi 

The error message “Number of resources exceeded” in Power BI Service typically indicates that your query has demanded more compute resources than what’s available to your workspace at that moment, either due to excessive memory usage, long-running DAX queries, or large result sets. This is especially common in complex reports that query large volumes of data, use many visuals loading at once, or involve high-cardinality fields. If you're using shared capacity, the limits are more restrictive, and resource contention with other tenants can worsen the issue. On Fabric or Premium capacity, although limits are higher, heavy queries can still trigger this if the dataset isn't optimized. To resolve this, consider applying report-level or visual-level filters to reduce the data being queried. Also, review your DAX measures and model structure to ensure there are no overly expensive calculations. If your dataset is in DirectQuery mode, evaluate whether Import mode or aggregations could improve performance. As a longer-term solution, you may also explore breaking large reports into smaller, more focused pages or separating them by user roles or business needs. If the issue persists and you're on dedicated capacity, your capacity admin can check usage metrics and consider scaling up resources or tuning workloads through the Fabric capacity settings.

Hey @Simomazzi ,

You may see if you can filter down the amount of data.  And, see when you get to the point where it does work.  You may also just need to reduce the number of columns in the visual to see if it is one column in particular that is causing an issue.
