Hello @oakfootballclub ,

 

The issue occurs when a visual has attempted to query too much data for the server to complete the result with the available resources.

 

and you can follow the tips to optimize your report:

1.Do not expose in a view a column that is not necessary in the Power BI data model.

2.Optimize the DAX calculation used in this visual to use less memory and return faster or change what the visual displays.

3.Remove unnecessary precision or split granularity values to reduce cardinality(Significantly reduce highly unique datetime values by splitting the date and time into separate columns. )

Thanks. what is maximum size for a pbix file to be published into service when using a single data table for pro license workspace and user?

alternatively, if I do not refresh historical data everytime, just add the current data to the table, is there any solution or demo for postgre sql? Thanks.

@oakfootballclub ,
