Scheduled refresh failed after 12 hours run

[Anonymous]

Hi,

I have a dataset refresh job scheduled at 9 pm yesterday. And today when I checked the refresh history, the job ran through the night for more than 12 hours. I'm wondering how could this happen? How can I solve the issue?

Thank you,

Kelly

Hi @Anonymous ,

Please refresh the same report in Power BI desktop and check if more CPU and memory consumed during refresh. 

You can check if there is any measure or calculated column defined in the report, please try to remove one by one to check which might causes memory issue. 

Also please try to optimized your data model based follow: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/power-bi-reports-performance#optimize-your-model
