Memory allocation failure

[tatevikz]

Hi, 

I have pretty big table (14M rows).

Once I try to change the type of one of the columns from decimale to integer, the following error occurs:

Could you please help me to understand what is the difference and why I got this issue.

Thanks,

Tatevik

Hi @tatevikz ,

Try to remove any unnecessary column in Edit Queries before importing in the data model. While Power BI support 2bn rows and 16,000 columns, it can be limited by the machine performance.
Try to allocate more memory in the Data Load tab. From Power BI dashboard, open Option > Data Load. Now increase the maximum allowed memory.

@tatevikz can you change the column type in power query.

hi @parry2k ,

I need the column type to be Integer and I'm using query editor to do that.

Once i try to save the changes and apply the error occurs.
