Unable to save the report after editing in Power BI service

 

Hi Power BI Support,

 

I am trying to save a power bi report after making some edits in Power BI service and it is throwing the following error. I can save the report under a different name but it is a hassle to rename them later. Is the below information helpful to troubleshoot the issue?

(repost) For what it's worth:  I had a similar issue with a report (that included bookmarks) that was created in PBI Desktop.  I then changed the report name online, tried to edit and had the same "Something went wrong" issue.

 

After a few minutes of anguish, I changed the report name (file name) of the PBIX file, republished, and now I can edit and save online again.

 

(Not sure if it's the same problem as yours, but I couldn't find anything on this issue anywhere - happened on the solution by chance trial and error - so perhaps it might help you?)

We are having the same issue, unable to save the report in PBI Service after editing for all our reports. 

 

Get the below error.  Any suggestions. Using the August release PBI desktop.

@chchIntech, just to check, have you had any of the following on those reports:

  • bookmarks,
  • changing names online?

When I try to save an old report, it is written it's saved, but the changes are actually not applied when I check. Could you please help me? I tried to solve this the whole day, nothing helps. Thank you in advance.
