I have set up scheduled refresh on multiple datasets. For some reason, the scheduled refresh set for around 0900 every day always times out. Unsure how to look into this further or how to investigate. The other scheduled refreshes during the day all succeed. Any suggestions?
Edit - I should add that the data source is SQL Server views, created specifically for Power BI to only bring in data that is needed. Also, there are very few datasets with more than just the navigation step in the Query Editor in PBI. There are a couple of datasets with one or two steps added
Solved! Go to Solution.
I rechecked the firewall requirements, updated firewall rules, and it all seems to be working well now. I went to below:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/service-gateway-onprem
Went through the 'Ports' and 'Enabling Outbound Azure Connections' sections, made sure everyting was in line with those requirements in particular, and now all fine
Hi is it possible to do this in the Query Editor now, after all datasets have been imported from SQL Server already? As I cannot see a way to reach the window you have highlighted below without reimporting every dataset again
Also, this issue only affects the scheduled refresh at 0900, but not any of the others throughout the day (data updates every two hours).
@ansa_naz - You can reach that window by clicking on the gear option next to 'Source' which is the first step or the step wherein data connection is defined. You can alternatively add, CommandTimeout=#duration(0, 1, 0, 0) in the end and close the statement out in the Advanced Editor. Lastly, there might be conflicting refreshes scheduled for 0900 from PBI side or most likely the datasets you are trying to access take way longer than usual during that time around, so check for that from a SQL stand point of view too.
Cheers will try this and see what happens
I just havd the morning refresh fail again. I even changed the refresh times, but now the 1000AM refresh has failed with below error:
Your data gateway is offline or couldn't be reached.
However the gateway is obviously still online as the scheduled data refresh before 1000am still worked. And I imagine the ones after will work too. Anything else I can do?
Hi @ansa_naz,
Please check your gateway service on 'system -> services' to see if it stop running.

The service is running, and has been the whole ay today. But I am still getting these errors today too
