Performance, connecting to a semantic model and writing measures

We have created a self-service data model.  The idea was for users to connect to the sematic model via PBI Desktop, Get Data and create their own reports.  When I connected to the model and write measures and add to a table visual, the visual spins for a few minutes and fails to render,  I get "Can't display the visual, either a connection cannot be made to the wabi-west-us....net server, or Analysis Services is not running on the compluter specified.". 

Even the simplest measures like "MyMeasure = 1" will fail.

Is this memeory on my PC, where I am using PBI Desktop?  The PBI Service? or the model maybe?

Hi @PompanoPete 

 

Can you confirm that when connecting to the semantic model you have got the build permissions on the semantic model?
