Upload a Pbix to SharePoint is Made Twice

[jmdh]

Hi

I have noticed (thanks to a low bandwidth) that when i uplaod a Pbix file to Sharepoint the file is always transferred twice, thus taking double time, double network ressources , plus risk of errors (ie the prompt for Replace may be missed):

First the file is uploaded

Then there is the "File already exists, replace ?" question

Then the file is again uploaded

This behavior does not exist with Office file which are loaded properly

Hi @jmdh, 

If the pbix file is already existing in the SharePoint online site, when we upload the file again, it will prompt us like below. Personally, I think it's easy to see the Replace button. If we don't click on Replace button, the original pbix file is there and the new file will be uploaded to override it. 

If you still have concern, I would suggest you post a thread in SharePoint online forum to get dedicated help: https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/home?forum=onlineservicessharepoint

I think this is an issue between the PowerBI team and SharePOint since it happens only for pbix files.

(The problem is still there)
