Hi @Bilal_321321,

 

Firstly, please pay attention to the limations when exporting dashboard/report to PowerPoint.

 

In Power Bi service, you have successfully print the dashboard to PowerPoint without any error, right? Based on my research, it looks like an issue in PowerPoint side. To determine what caused this error, please try to open an other ppt file which is not exported from Power BI. And create a dashboard which only contains a simple tile and export it for a test to see whether ppt file can be opened.

 

Here are some troubleshooting advice regarding to above error:

I received a .ppt error Powerpoint was unable to display some of..

Fixed – PowerPoint was unable to display some of the text, images, or objects on slides in the file.

Hi Yuliana,

 

Thanks for your response. I have never actually been able to export anything to PowerPoint. I have tried literally every option even trying to export a simple list which only has 7/8 rows and I still get the same message.

Any idea what it could be?

 

P.S. sorry for late response!!! It got me so stressed I went on holiday!! 😉

 

Thanks

Hi @Bilal_321321,

 

From the error message, it looks like an issue on PowerPoint side. To test this, could you logon your Power BI service on a different computer and export reports to PowerPoint? If issue persists, you might need to create a support ticket for further analysis.
