Power BI Service is not updating semantic models

Good morning, for a while now Power BI Service is not updating the semantic models of the reports, neither the scheduled updates nor the ‘manual’ on-demand attempts. Is this happening to anyone else?

Everything has been working as it should for several days now, so I consider the issue resolved.

Thank you all very much.

I'm seeing this issue currently.  Started last Friday (5/2) and still happening, but just for one semantic model.

Same issue here. Been like this since last week. Dataflows that used to take less than 2 minutes to refresh took almost an hour, if not failed (due to the 2-hour limit). Semantic models suddenly spitting out strange "culprits" that change each time - the Sales table, the Clients lookup table, the Orders table, whatever it may be.

What is going on? Any action or word from Microsoft???

Refreshes that normally take 15-20 min are taking 5+hours.  Happening across multiple models.

Everything seems to be working for us again now

Refresh starts for me too. Thanks for the info. Maybe it's in slow rollout.

tested again, still failing for us

Scheduled refreshes are not working on European Server ( Istanbul / Türkiye) too ,dataflows and semantic models could not be refreshed 

Could it be due to the regional blackout happening in some EU countries? Just read yesterday about total blackout in Spain and Portugal? Have just set my timezones to UTC, dunno if that has anything to do with this and if changing it back to JST would resolve anything. Crazy if not completely idiotic thoughts arise in times of desperation, apoligies. 🙏

still cannot manually refresh the semantic models, and now i can't even publish a new semantic model or replace existing one from pbi desktop to service...
