Power BI Dataflow - response too large to return
- 2 years ago
Can't use direct connection to BQ for access reasonsChallenge that assumption. Tell them that 650 GB is too much.
If they don't budge, use Incremental Refresh. Start VERY small, with a day or so. See how many rows you get. Recommended partition size is around 8 to 20 million rows.

Please explain "import does not work" - are you getting an error message?
Direct Query on a dataflow = datamart = lipstick on a pig (Azure SQL db being the lipstick and the dataflow being the pig). Possible, sure, but a travesty nevertheless.
You can consider switching the incremental refresh to the dataset instead and to completely remove the dataflow from the equation.
You can consider dataflow Gen2 and store the results as Delta Lake in Fabric.
You have two partitions, but you should have at least 17 (14 for the days in August and 3 for the prior months)
Did you limit the source data in a way that you are not covering the cold partition range?
The only time it ran longer than those avg of 15 seconds was on 2nd of Aug, prior to that it was the regular 15 seconds until 27th july and that's the last i can see.
