Issues

Dear all, Recently the mobile layout is updated with interactive function, however the background of the mobile layout now stays in White color regardless what canvas color or wallpaper you choose in Power BI Desktop view. I have tried on few different PCs and Pbix files they all return the same white background issues since all my reports are in Black background with white font. Would be gladful if this is verified as a bug and can be fixed as we are unable to publish the report now as it will ruin the mobile layout view of users. Thanks!

I read this Power BI blog post from a couple of years ago where @s-richert was discussing how to embed a Power BI Goals (now Power BI Metrics I believe) scorecard display into a Sharepoint Page in hopes of being able to view the scorecard inside of Sharepoint rather than having to open another app on my mobile device. I followed the steps to a tee, even using the suggestions to only paste the embed link rather than the entire iframe code and that allowed it to attempt to connect to Power BI. I am a Pro Power BI licensed user, the owner of the workspace, and it is still giving me this error when I try to open the embedded scorecard in Sharepoint: I have tried this not only in this workspace, but also in another, premium-per-user workspace with the same results. From everything I have seen online, several others have had this issue as well. Based on the article I know this feature was in preview, so I want to know if this capability is even possible, or if there is something I am doing wrong, but just want more info on the matter. Thanks in advance.

Hello, When I open the 'Shared with me' menu in Power BI service no reports are shown. After I refresh the page I can see the reports. This does not happens once but everytime.

Hi, I have a visual that uses the Shape>Style>Shadow feature to display a status indicator. This works as expected when viewing the published report in Power BI Service on my computer. However, when I access it from my phone or tablet, the shadows don't display. I've tried editing the report within Power BI service from my tablet and can see that the feature is still enabled but it will not display. View of the visual on my computer: View of the visual from my phone browser (missing green status shadow): This seems to be a recent issue as the shadow was correctly displaying before. I see that there is another route to add a shadow under General>Effects>Shadow, but this does not work well with the rounded corners of my metric card Please let me know if there is any limitation to using the Shape>Style>Shadow feature when accessing from a tablet, or if there are any recommendations for workarounds. Thanks!

Hi there, I've run into a bit of an issue in Power BI Desktop (Version: 2.109.782.0 64-bit (September 2022)) using the Mobile Layout. Frequently when trying to change the Position of a visualisation, it will ignore the numbers that I'm typing into the Horizontal and/or Vertical text box and the numbers will go negative, effectively removing the visual from the screen. In the below example, I'm using a CARD visual and trying to type in the position of Horizontal = 18, Vertical = 1140 (with a height of 100 and width of 18). It has changed the values to Horizontal = -215, Vertical = -115 and the visualisation has disappeared from the screen. I'm not able to get it back. Each time I change the Horiztonal or Vertical position it just ignores my values and keeps it as a negative. I was able to type Horizontal = 0 and Vertical = 0 but once I click off this layer and click back it reverts to the Horizontal = -215 and Vertical = -115. I can't remove this layer as it doesn't exist on the screen so there is no X to click. I've tried clicking DELETE when selecting the layer but it doesn't do anything. The only option I have is to click the option to remove all visualisations and start again (obviously no ideal when I have 20+ visualisations already positioned and adjusted. This isn't a one-off. It's happened multiple times in multiple different PBIX files. I haven't had any issues when I drag and drop visualisations around the screen, but when trying to manually adjust the visualisations this sometimes occurs. I've attached a screenshot showing the issue. Thanks

Hello everyone! I am using Power BI Desktops and Power BI Reports Server. Problem occurs when I am sending the link for a report via mobile app: (Ios 12.3 phone, PBI lastest version from the AppStore installed) When I send over a link via email, over Imessenger or sms: User receives a link and report description. If user attempts to open it, the following issues arise: Using computer: user gets into a cloud version of PBI, or gets a list of reports on the server, but the report itself wouldn’t open. Using mobile: The AppStore link opens up, user gets a dialog window “install/open” PBI app and then a list of reports on the server app comes up When link is sent via WhatsApp messenger: only a window screenshot is sent. I would like a screenshot to be sent with a report link attached to it. Also, I would like to open a link and get straight to the report itself, ideally with filters. The situation is similar with Android phone and latest version from PlayMarket. However, in apps I tested so far, screenshot is sent with a link. When clicking the link, the behavior would be identical to IOS, screenshot is sent only. So here I also would like it to do the following: Receive the screenshot with a link and when I hit the link I would like to get straight to the report, preferably with filters.

Hello, I'm a new Power Bi system admin for our small organization. Our power bi pro users are now being prompted to set up multi factor authentication before signing into power bi. I have this disabled in all user accounts. Why is it still requiring users to download an MFA app and set this up? They are able to bipass it for 14 days but then it says it will be required. Below is a screenshot of the user settings for our account from the MS

Well this issue has been raised before but hasn't got enough attention so I'd post again here... I started to try out the Email Subscription but realizes that it is absolutely unusable now - the dashboard/report that is attached in the email (as a screenshot) is too small. Using default visualization styles, I would have to zoom in to 200% to read the texts. I've tried multiple email services (Outlook, Outlook Web, gmail) and tried Outlook Mobile to see if this thing only works on Mobile. It does not. Now, Tableau has this functionality and works perfectly. I get a snapshot that I can read in the email and quickly get the insights. With Power BI now, I would either 1) open the .png attachment to see the visuals, or 2) zoom in in the email client (assuming that I can, in that case Outlook) to 200%, or 3) go to the link below to view this in Power BI website. All these options are incredibly burdensome especially for executive level people - they just want to take a quick look and get the insights. With this, it is very hard to push for Power BI in the corporation against Tableau. I see this as a perfect functionality but 99% done. The thing is, without the extra 1%, this is absolutely unusable. Please fix this...

Multiple people in my organization are unable to view published apps in our Power BI tenant. They can sometimes click Apps and then wait for it to load forever. You see a brief message "Data Loading" followed by "Almost Done." And it will spin for hours. My entire company has a Pro license. The data loads fine in my Power BI desktop. Issue happens on both IE 11 and Chrome 69. Good thing I'm not currently doing my presentation on why you should use Azure! I've seen this happen often and on. You never know when it is going to happen. My Azure admin says when he logs in to Azure portal it tells him no known outages.

If we have technical issues I want to be able to report this to support, get a support ticket and communication with a support staff employee. Now we have to report something that looks like an outage in Western Europe like some new requested feature.

Our organization is experiencing issues accessing Power BI. The link will load for a few minutes then receive this error: The outage is company wide. We utilized Premium. Is anyone else experiencing issues?

I have an issue while using the mobile Power BI app with Page Background images. When viewing a report with background images on the mobile app, everything is shifted around and misaligned. I have experienced this issue using all three of the image fit types (Normal, Fit, and Fill) and I've also tried background images with different resolutions as well. For some background info, my users are almost exclusively mobile users. Trying to design the report using the Phone Layout option will not work due to the limited options available (no bookmarks or button functionality). My users will also need to be able to view this report in landscape which isn't possible in the Phone Layout editor. I have experienced this shifting image issue on both Apple and Android products though most of my users are using Apple products. Does anyone know how to get Page Background images to line up the same way on the Power BI Service and Power BI mobile app? What the main report page looks like on the Power BI service: For reference, all design elements - like the drop-shadow rectangles - are from the background image. What this same page looks like on the mobile app: As you can see, all the visuals are misaligned with the background image. What's even more puzzling is that the shifting is different almost every time I open the report. On rare occassions it's perfectly aligned so I have no idea what's causing it to change each time.

We are facing problem with drill through functionality on IPad where we are using Matrix visuals. In our report we have a matrix visuals having “Account” as rows , “Weeks” as columns and “Sales” as values of matrix with Totals enabled, we have implemented the drill through functionality on “Account” column (row header of the visual) which is working correctly on desktop and Power BI services (browser). When we checked on IPad its working only on the sales values & totals and not on the Accounts, is there any way to set the drill through functionality on matrix rows. Request you to help us resolve this issue at the earliest as our client is about to share the report with the users in the next few days and fixing this right away is critical.

Allow pinned live pages to remain interactive in mobile apps. Live page interactivity is a large draw of this feature, but this limits a complete dashboard experience to the browser, and prevents end users consuming reports on mobile devices from having the same rich experience. Per the forum thread linked below, this functionality was working in the past, but we have recently seen with a customer that pinned live pages are not interactive on the iOS app on iPads. Per an email from the Power BI support team, this lack of interactivity is by design. https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Mobile-Apps/Pin-Live-page-slicer-in-ios-App-is-not-working/m-p/16057#M387

When I view my tenant's reports in the Mobile Application, both the Desktop Views and the Mobile views are chaning the font from Arial Black to what looks like Times New Roman. We have a style guide to follow and would like to get this bug fixed. Thank you!
