Publishing Slowly to the service

[sleopol]

Good afternoon, I wanted to check with everyone on the forums; has anyone else been running into issues with publishing large models to the service since the most recent update to PowerBI? I have a model that is around 5 GB and used to take anywhere from 40 minutes to an hour to publish to the service, but since the most recent PBI update I'm getting stuck on the "publishing to PowerBI" screen for hours on end without a completion or failure message populating. I noticed that the interface itself has updated with the most recent update as well. 

Thank you,

Stephen

Hi  @sleopol 

Shared capacity has a 1GB limit on model size, so your workspace must be guaranteed to be Premium capacity.Based on this, you can upload more than 1GB of pbix.
So what you need to make sure is that the workspace you are uploading does not have a 1GB limit on model size? Is your Premium license expired?
