Today our embedded Power BI dashboards often load very slowly or do not load at all (but not all the time). The same appears when I approach them via app.powerbi.com. It seems to me that something is wrong with the Power BI service. Are there other people who experience this as well?
Our dashboards have been loading very slowly over the past two weeks for embedded Power BI reports. We experienced a similar issue around the same time last year in January, and the performance improved on its own later in February. Are other users currently experiencing the same issue, and have they noticed a similar pattern?
Hi @Lalage ,
There are many reasons your reports could be slow. This video outlines some of them and suggests some remedies https://www.sqlbi.com/tv/my-power-bi-report-is-slow-what-should-i-do/

Hi @Lalage ,
I know that this is a number of hours ago now since you posted this. The first place to go when you think there might be an overall issue is to go to Support | Microsoft Power BI and see if there are any known issues. I just checked, there are none at this moment (which doesn't mean there wasn't when you posted this).
The next thing, if you really believe that this is not something that is happening within your own specific environment, but the service itself is to use that same link and to request support or report an issue.
