Color palettes in power bi services

$
0
0

The color palette has not yet been published in power bi service, like the option found in "View" with all color themes?
If there is no news, is there a way to import a script or some other way to change the colors of the reports in Power bi service? I want to do it in the same way as on desktop, that choosing a theme changes the heat in all the tabs of my report.

Regards.


UrgentPower BI service portal- Performance

Hi Experts, 

 

Please throw some light as I couldnt figure out what could be the reason slowing my company's system. 

 

My datasource is SQL database , connected via on-premises gateway and created dataflow to the power BI service and reports from it.

My reports are optimized and dashboard performance from those reports have no performance issue BUT its been noticed whenever the user uses those dashboard and reports, the database is slowing down becuase of which other systems performances related with the database surprisingly drops. 

 

MY understanding is power BI service caches all the related data in the report from datasource/database without having to interfer in the live connection.

 

Any advice will be highly appreciated.

 

 

Support for composite models with Power Bi datasets/Azure Analysis Services

Hi all,

Does anyone know what is happening with support for composite models for Power Bi datasets/Azure Analysis Services?

It was previously in the release plan here but it has since been removed.

There was also an idea which was in the top 50 or so rated on ideas.powerbi which has also been removed. I think the link was (my browser had it cached): https://ideas.powerbi.com/forums/265200-power-bi-ideas/suggestions/34922932-composite-models-when-connected-to-sql-server-**bleep**

Does anyone know what happened to this? Is there communications anywhere which would indicate whether this is still planned? To say that we are desperate for this is an understatement.

Thanks

Personal Bookmark getting deleted

Hi All, 

 

My business users are complainting that there personal bookmarks are getting deleted whenever a new version of report is published by developers

Is this a known behaviour or a bug? As per the powerbi offical page the limitation says Users will get a error message stating something has chaged with this version. 

 

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/consumer/end-user-bookmarks

 

From above link :

Generally, your bookmarks will not be affected if the report designer updates or republishes the report. However, if the designer makes major changes to the report, such as removing fields used by a bookmark, then you will receive an error message the next time you attempt to open that bookmark.

Hi,

 

When priting a report in Power BI service we always get 2 pages. Page 2 is blank except a semicolon in the top left corner. I have tried changing the page size but always get the same result. I have also published a new blank report but always get the semicolon on page 2 when printing. 

 

Anyone can help or has idea to solve the issue?

Please specify how to connect.

So I needed to make some changes in the advanced editor of a dataflow entity. I do this every month-end and never had problems, this month at the part where I get the error; "Please specify how to connect.", when I click on configure connection and sign in, it loads for a few seconds and just gives the error again. 

 

Does anyone know why this would happen? It accepts the login details, loads and gives the same error. My gateway is running as I do this and up to date. Is there some error that the service is not just showing me that is preventing it from signing in?

save report on service get stuck

Hi all,

One of the managers in my company started having a problem when he tried to save report on the service.

On save action page grey out (like it usually does when saving is in progress), but there is no following succsesfull or error message, it just get stuck.

Later when he want to see if chages are saved, they were not, and report is still the same.

This is happening on chrome for windows 83.0.4103.97 (Official Build) (64-bit), and clearing a cash or trying private browsing did not help.

Trying in Mozilla did not solve it eather. This is still local problem on his machine since other users can save the same report from their machines.

In developer console i saw there are error on POST request to powerbi page but i dont know how to continue from here.

Any ideas what could cause this problem?

At the moment i dont see an option to connect him with MS support since it is really hard to get some of this manager free time.

 

Reshare Permissions on Power BI Service

Hi there Power BI Community. 

I am a little bambozzled by an issue we're experiencing around reshare in Power BI workspaces. My collegue is an Admin of the workspace and created the report that points to an on prem dataset that is governed by a gateway. However, he cannot see the "share" report options. He can however edit the report and grant permissions on the dataset. 

Is there something I am missing? 

Thanks,
Sasha

RLS with out relations

$

Hi guys,

 

i have a strange scenario issue.

 

i have developed a power BI report and its works fine.

 

In this report there are 25 individual datasets and one 1 dataset for summary view.

 

Basically this is SSRS to Power BI migrated report.

 

in SSRS we usually give report authentication based on RDL using active directory.

 

but in power BI we need to have a relaybetween the dataset and user.

 

so, as i said i have 25 datasets. Customer wants to assign RLS for all these datasets. They sent a spreadsheet with user email and which dataset they should access.

 

25 datasets * multiple users

one user may access 2 or more datasets or only 1.

 

we dont have any relationship between dataset and user table. 

up on user login they should see thier own data.

i really tried a lot and i am running out of ideas. Any help on how to implement this please???


No solution for bulk email subscriptions to Apps with Row Level Security?

$

We send out sales reports every day by email from our existing BI system, and switching now to Power BI we'd like to activate subscriptions for everyone so that they automatically start receiving the new emails

 

However, seemingly for no good reason it's impossible to subscribe other people to reports that have RLS

 

Is there genuinely no solution to this (right now)?

Set a dynamic default value for date filter

$
0

Hi guys!

 

I have a simple problem:

I have a report with multiple filters, that filters a relatively big dataset. The underlying dataset is constantly refreshes (as more data goes into the underlying SQL table). One of the filters is a date filter, which determines a day - only data that have this date (in one of the columns in the SQL table) will be visualized in the report.

How can I set the default value of this date filter to be always the biggest date? So if the consumer of the report opens the report he/she sees information of the newest day?

 

It seems like an easy and simple task... but I cannot solve this.

 

I already tried relative filter on the filter, but in this case the filter loses its feature - because it will only display the biggest date. Naturally I dont want that.

 

Thanks in advance!

Power Bi Service Requested a Gateway to Refresh a Web Page Data - Is it Correct?

Hi Everyone !

I created a query to pull data from https://bsportsfan.com/le/23114/Esoccer-GT-Leagues-%E2%80%93-12-mins-play/p.2

It worked well in Desktop but in Power BI Service , it requested when I asked to refresh.

bsport.png

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Then i changed my code and used Relative Path, because it might be the issue. But I still get the same request to have a gateway installed.

 

 

let Source = Web.Page(Web.Contents("https://bsportsfan.com", [RelativePath="/le/23114/Esoccer-GT-Leagues-%E2%80%93-12-mins-play/p.2"])), Data0 = Source{0}[Data] in Data0

 

 

I pulled data from web before and refreesh it using PBI service and it was never a issue. 

Does anyone knows how can I fix that?

Thank you in advance

Compute engine memory (%) (Preview) - Dataflow workload setting

$

I'm struggling to find any documentation on  what the Compute engine memory (%) (Preview) setting in the Dataflow workload controls and what the positives and negatives are to increasing it.

PaulKn_0-1593182332557.png

I have started experiencing memory errors on one of my dataflows that is merging and grouping large linked entities from the same workspace e.g.:

Error: Data Source Error : Microsoft SQL: There is insufficient memory available in the buffer pool

Error: Data Source Error : Microsoft SQL: Error: 802 Severity: 17 State: 2. (Params:). The error is printed in terse mode because there was error during formatting. Tracing ETW notifications etc are skipped.

 

As the dataflow is working only with linked entities that have already been successfully ingested these error messages must relate to the SQL engine behind the enhanced compute engine rather than any SQL source of my own. The Premium Capacity metrics show that the dataflow memory limit is nowhere near being hit.

 

I assume the setting will allow more memory to be used by the enhanced compute engine but I don't know if there are potential drawbacks to this (the default is 30%) that could cause problems elsewhere. Has anybody any more knowledge about this?
