Report Corrupted
- 5 months ago
Hii Abhikadmawala
when you delete a report, keep the dataset, and then rebind an older report, the internal PBIX download linkage breaks even though the dataset still exists. That’s why the semantic model appears blank and the report cannot be downloaded, but your data is not actually lost. The only reliable recovery is to connect to the existing dataset from Power BI Desktop (Get Data >> Power BI Dataset) and rebuild the report; downloading the original PBIX is not possible once this linkage is broken.

Power BI may no longer be able to generate a downloadable PBIX, especially when service-side changes or Premium features are involved. I would recommend you to download your model with an external tool tile Tabular Editor and download the report pbip from OneLake Explorer. Then combine files in destop.
To avoid these kind of struggles I would prefer always keep working in desktop.
