In my case, I just found one of the freshly added measures via Tabular Editor that was breaking the update. Removed it from the report. Added it again with a different name and everything worked.

Finding that measure was a matter of successively deleting measures until the update worked.

 

Also from the recommendations I've seen:

Check for Duplicate Elements: Ensure that the data or elements you are querying do not contain duplicates when they are not supposed to. This is often the case when you expect a unique identifier but find multiple entries with the same identifier.

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

Sorry for late reply. But I cannot reproduce your issue.

Please try the latest version of Power BI Desktop. (Version: 2.91.701.0 64-bit (March 2021))
