Good morning!
I'm trying to upload my reports in power BI Service (I've tried both in a PRO workspace and in a Premium one), and I'm experimenting the same error:
I have a new product master table that is full of string fields , and the reports containing this table are less than 1GB (most of them are around 0,4GB. This table is a key one to have all my data related and contains about 3milion rows
Anyone with the same problem?
Kind regards
ALba

Hi, @ATO23
Your product has a large number of string fields, and the number of rows of data reaches three million, and the query or computation that runs consumes more memory than the configured limit.
You can check if your query can be simplified. Avoid complex calculations or extensive data transformation steps. Simplifying queries can reduce memory usage.
Examine your data model to see if there is unnecessary complexity or non-standard data structures, and try to optimize your data model.
Consider using paginated reports, which can handle large amounts of data and are handled differently than interactive reports.
For optimization, you can refer to the following link:

Or contact your capacity administrator to ask if you can increase the memory limit for your query, and you can check out the following links for capacity limits:
