Timeout error After applying incremental refresh

Hi Rathod

It seems like you are indeed hitting the timeout limit for the initial refresh of your data model (the two hour limit that you are observing).

Applying incremental refresh may cause the initial load to be slightly slower than without the policy, hence you seeing a timeout when applying it.

A potential solution is to bootstrap your initial full data load, by publishing a version of the datamodel with a parameter that limits the amount of data. Subsequently you can use Tabular Editor or SSMS to connect to your datamodel via the XMLA endpoint, and from here adjust the parameter, as well as fine tune your incremental refresh partitions: Advanced incremental refresh and real-time data with the XMLA endpoint in Power BI - Power BI | Microsoft Learn
