Goodafternoon,

 

Hopefully somebody can help me with a error.

The error is in English: "This visual contains limited data" 

I don't understand what the cause is of this error.

 

Is there somebody how knows the solution?

This error is because RLS has been applied, and the user was either not added to the RLS, or given limited access.

Go to the RLS (Row-Level Security) settings, elect every member of the group and enter their emails again. Click on Add and then Save.

It most likely caused by RLS: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/admin/service-admin-rls

 

Two ways to solve this:

1. Dataset=>Security=> add your colleagues to the existing RLS group

2  IF you dont want restrict their access, just add your colleagues to the workspace as Members/Contributor/Admin (not Viewer), because the 3 roles are not restricted by RLS. Please refer to: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/collaborate-share/service-new-workspaces
