Hi,
I am using Power BI service live connection. I created roles and assigned users in the data set. In the data model, I have 2 dimension tables with active one to many relationship between them. I have one fact table with active relationship with one dimension table and inactive relationship with another dimension table.
I am getting the error "Couldn't load the data for visual - Join paths are expected to form a tree, but the table has two join paths" error in the report that uses Live connection even though one of the relationships is inactive. When I create the same visual directly in the report page that has the data set it works.
Has anyone experienced this issue? Please let me know how to resolve this.
Regards,
Keerthi
