Hey @Anonymous ,

 

the limit in Power BI Report Server is 2 GB.

But you have to raise it in the settings. Check the following article on how to do that:

If you need any help please let me know.
If I answered your question I would be happy if you could mark my post as a solution ✔️ and give it a thumbs up 👍

1: >>>

"The standard limitation on the dataset size cached in Power BI is 1 GB. But with Power BI Premium, we will be removing that limitation. You will be able to build models as large as the Power BI Premium dedicated capacity memory can hold. This means that the Power BI Premium P3 SKU will be able to support a dataset with 50 GB of data or more, and upcoming SKUs will offer capacity sizes that allow datasets with hundreds of gigabytes of data"

 

2>> 

You will need to switch to DirectQuery.

 

3>>

Reduce your data-model size if possible

 

I don't see any other option here
