How are you trying to change it? In Data source settings, once you have a data source in Direct Query mode, I believe the Import option is greyed out. So, that question as well as what error you are getting.

You may be running into a data model size limitation. What happens if you just create a brand new Desktop file and connect to the data source and do an import (could even copy over your query using Advanced Editor)

Hi @aka,

You'd better check if the error was caused by the size limitation according to @Greg_Deckler posted. Please feel free to ask if you have other issue.
