Hi, The new light theme pane is giving me headaches. I do not think you should have released the June 2019 Update with the light theme without a dark one. It is really hard for me to read and impacting my work. Please send out a patch with the old pane while you are developing the dark theme.

Hello, Since changing my apps to the new app experience that came out on August 24th, 2022 I'm unable to update my apps. Just updating the data in existing reports work, however when I try to add a new report or user to the app, the updated fails on both premium and non-premium workspaces. Here's the error message I receive: Activity ID: 3c436903-31cc-4deb-acb6-129ce3edaaa0 Request ID: 86792392-0c11-b79d-66e0-0282c9f6d375 Correlation ID: 6e7df13f-9f69-f61a-e3ea-4ca37bbf32a6 Time: Wed Aug 31 2022 14:27:37 GMT-0400 (Eastern Daylight Time) Service version: 13.0.18945.45 Client version: 2208.4.12891-train Cluster URI: https://wabi-us-north-central-j-primary-redirect.analysis.windows.net/ Please let me know if you have any additional questions for me.

Hello, I posted this in the help section of the community, but I believe it is a bug with the most recent update (October 2023). I routinely export desktop PBI reports to PDF for sharing in newsletters. Today, for some reason, when I exported to PDF, only about the top left quarter of each page is exported instead of the full page. I have attempted exporting multiple different reports, closing and re-opening Power BI, and restarting my computer to no avail. Nothing in my report has changed other than refreshing the data. Each page is the default 16:9 720x1280 size. I was able to successfully export from a report published to the online workspace, but not desktop. A coworker was also able to successfully export from desktop with the August 2023 update. Link to help thread with numerous others with the same issue Any help in getting this resolved would be appreciated!

Ever since about 6am Eastern today, my dataset refreshes have been failing and the reports are just spinning - no errors, just spinning like it's trying to load the data.

Hi, As of Wed 09/12/22 our customers are experiencing an issue when using File --> Print this page, the page preview is just a blank page with a header and footer. Some customers print many pages per day and are irritated with having to workaround by exporting to pdf first. I can see other users in the community having the same issue that have posted yesterday. Do you have a resolution to this? Thanks, Kim

Hello Support, I am hoping someone can help me solve a recent issue with my scorecards. Starting 3/7/23 my scorecard goals are not staying updated with the linked reports. I have multiple Metrics linked directly to reports. The scorecards are no longer auatomatically updating. I have to manually update them by refreshing the connection to the report. Even though the report is automatically refreshing I have both the report and scorecard data sets set to automatically updated multiple times a day. And despite those occuring without errors the data in the scorecard is not updating. This is causing issues with our performance KPIs. I have not changed anything in either report to cause the changes. I have even added new goals that are also not updating.

In Power BI Desktop I am running into an issue where I cannot format visualizations that are part of a group. When selecting the visualization in the group and navigating to the Format visual tab, no options are available and it says "Formatting options are unavailable for this visual". The only workaround is to ungroup the visualization, make formating changes, then re-group it with the other visualizations. This has been happening for the past week or two. Sometimes it will let me format visualizations in a group, but most of the time it shows the message below.

Hi there, I have a noticed a recent issue where people are trying to use the export via the Summarized Data and the File Format .csv It says it has a limit of 30,000 rows but on any export it only retrieves the first 300? Can this be investigated please?

We have a reports that are published as app. The page navigation is set to dark blue and it was working fine (visually and functionality wise) last week. Today, all of our apps are greyed out almost half of the page navigation (see attached pic below wherein until #18 its good but grey starts from 19 onwards). When clicked, the page still opens and work but its causing panic and alarm as the color is different than expected. Any ideas whats causing this issue?

There appears to be a bug when pinning visuals to dashboards. It seems to work for table/matrix visuals, but no for any other type (the visuals in the gif are standard PBI visuals)

Running a VM with 2 processors and 32 GB of RAM Windows Server 2016 standard 64-bit Version 1607 OS Build 14393.5501 Everytime I open Power BI Desktop I'm being promtped to re-enter my login credentials... This appears to have started on 2.117.894 which was found after some testing. This is incredibly frustrating and annoying as I need to enter my full e-mail/AD password (multiple times) and also authenticate via Ping ID every time I open Power BI desktop. Previous version did not have this issue and functioned as expected caching the credentials, allowing me to open a new Power BI desktop window without needing to re-authenticate every time. I have installed previous version of Power BI but am unable to open and .pbix file I edited in a more recent version... the following list is the versions tested to document when the issues started to occur: 2.115.663 - not re-prompted to login each time, user image shows up, pbix files do not load 2.116.622 - not re-promptedto login each time, user image shows up, pbix files do not load 2.116.996 - not re-prompted to login each time, user image shows up, pbix files do not load 2.117.894 and after - re-prompted for login each time, user image does not show up, pbix files load The "user image" is simply my avatar that is set on office365 for my user account within my company None of the labels made sense for this issue, but I was required to add one.

Does anyone facing issues with the Power-BI Service? From the last 30 mins none of my reports are working. I checked my reports on 3 different capacities and all the reports are having the same behaviour.

Hi. I tried to load the Marketplace page to view POWER BI DESKTOP visualizations from 2 computers and 2 different users, but the page did not load. A loading wheel appears for less than a second and then nothing happens. I checked with other colleagues in my geographical area, and the result was the same. I would like to request your urgent attention to this issue. Unfortunately, I can't attach a screenshot of the loading screen, because it is disappearing very quickly. Thank you, Rita

Hello Team, I have a simple line chart that shows sales for the last three years and then I added the trend line from the analytics tab and I also have added a forecast trend line. It was working for the last two weeks then suddenly, it stopped working, get this error below:- If I download the report to my computer, and use power bi desktop app, the line chart works just fine, the forecast works and I don't get any error, it only stopped working on the cloud service in Power BI this morning. I am thinking this is a bug, I also have used a different dataset completely and tried replicating the issue and the line chart right away throws an error when I try to add the forecast line. The trend line is fine, its the forecast that drives the entire visual to throw an error and fail to display result. Note: I do have a Power BI Pro license Any suggestions please! Thank you Mohanad

I have a PBIX file with ~30 tables and with multiple data tables and support tables. I've recently run into an issue when I add a NEW table to the report, it puts it in the top left corner and I'm unable to move it. This causes an issue as I have multiple new tables to add and they keep stacking on top of each other and I'm unable to move any of them.

I've been testing the new visual pane layout and options, however when using buttoms I cannot find the "Action" pane On the old layout used to be the last option On the new I cannot find it anywhere, So it renders the button useless since I cannot set an action to it.

I have some queries againt a Postregre Database, and prewiew in Power Query works fine, but when when I try to update it fail with this error message: Apply query changes" Queries Metadata: Failed to save modifications to the server. Error returned: 'An unexpected error occurred (file 'tmsavepointvalidation.cpp', line 458, function 'TMSavePoint::VerifyProxyCreationAllowed'). I have never seen this error before... May be it has to do with the new feature enhanced metadata format? Reagards!

Hi! Since September 2021 Update, when refreshing data using Power BI Desktop connected to Azure SQL Server, it goes like: Evaluating - OK Waiting for other queries - OK Creating connection in model ... (Stays here until all data is loaded) I have more than 100 Power BI files in my organization, all of the connected to Azure, so it is not a specific file that has this behaviour. Every file I try is the same. At first I thought it was stuck there, but If the file is big, lets say 4 Million rows, it takes sometime and eventually loads the data. But it doesn't show the amount of rows being downloaded anymore. And believe me, this is my daily routine, importing, updating and building reports. This is misleading because you can't differentiate if the process is stuck or going all right anymore. You just have to have faith that is working, but when it takes too long it is complicated to be waiting without knowing that it is going to load correctly. I was hoping that this would be fixed in October 2021 release but had no luck. Anyone else experiencing this? Thanks in advance! @amitchandak
