Hi,
Hoping someone will be able to give some advice on what may be causing this issue.
I have a report built up which links to 2 locations both in a SharePoint folder
1 is a direct link to an excel file looking up employee details
2 is a document library where the query combines multiple files of raw data all small size nothing over 1mb probably about 49 columns in total.
There are a few conditional columns and a couple of customer columns in the combine query but nothing too complex, there is only 1 relationship between the 2 files aligning a serial number from the employee details to the raw data.
When I refresh in the desktop absolute no issues it's a bit slow but it goes through however it throws back the following error everytime I refresh in the service.
Any advice on why or how I can resolve this would be great.
Hi @Anonymous
What I would suggest doing is when you are refreshing in PBI Desktop and see how much memory it is consuming during the refresh.
Check out the April 2026 Power BI update to learn about new features.
