How to increase number of failures before disabling scheduled refresh

$
0
0

Hi,

 

I often have power BI reports that do not complete sceduled refreshes for whatever reason ("There was an error when processing the data in the dataset."). After a few errors in a row, it disables the sceduled refresh ("data refresh has been disabled.").

 

I would like to increase the number of attempts needed to activate this disabling. Ideally in terms of time rather than attempts. For example, sceduled refreshes should keep trying unless it's been a week of failing.

 

Any help would be nuch appreciated.

 

Thanks 


API Call to retrieve who a report has been shared with

$

Hi all,

I've been playing around with the APIs as of late (thanks to BI Elite) and have been working on retrieving our Usage from the O365 Audit Logs, importing Dataset spefics from API (refresh history, refresh schedule) and now want to take it one step further.

 

From the Audit Logs, I can see who's been using reports, but what I would like / want / need is the ability to pull who a report has been shared with.  We have a few workspaces with many reports in each and users are added directly to the report, not the workspace.  

 

My idea is that if I can get an API call to retrieve who has access to a report, that I can then build a SharePoint site that provides links, descriptions, etc, based upon who's logged in.  Let's not get to caught up on this idea, and think about if it's even possible to fetch the 'Shared with' list.

 

Thanks!

Refresh error when getting data from a secure REST API

$

Hi,

I've got a dataset that pulls data from the freshservice API.  My Power Query code passes the API key in the header (code below).

 

Source = Json.Document( Web.Contents( "https://xxxx.freshservice.com/", [ Query= [ per_page="100", page=Number.ToText(page) ], Headers=[Authorization="Basic xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"], RelativePath = "api/v2/tickets" ] ) )

 

I've got the connection set up for anonymous authentication.  When I go refresh the dataset, I get the following error:  "Please make sure your data gateway (personal mode) is installed and configured properly"

Any ideas?  Connecting to a web API shouldn't require a gateway at all so why am I getting a gateway error?

Thanks!


Gateway - Unable to Configure SQL Analysis VIA HTTP Data Pump

$
0

When publishing a Report from PowerBI Desktop with a WORKING datasource direct (aka IMPORT as Live is greyed out) connection to HTTPS://Server/msmdpump.DLL to PowerBI online, the Gateway Datasource Configuration is Missing in PowerBI online  even though there is a working exact same OLE DB DataSource in the Gateway.

 

I am unable to CONFIGURE the Gateway to use the SAME working Datasource listed in the Gateway even though the data source is listed in the Gateway with no errors. I am assuming because the Datasource was OLEDB but PowerBI changes it to Analysis Services when it looks at the gateway to match the connection strings, the OLE DB wont match? 

 

[I had created the same data source as OLE DB in both Desktop and in the Gateway- though I dont even want to use the gateway at all] 

 

This pic is redacted but shows the Working Local Data Source in PBI Dekstop (no Gateway). The Gateway doesnot see this connect and I cannot compare the two connection strings to know they are 100% the same. Also the Gateway then tries to add a new Analysis Services connection when in fact it should be an OLE DB for the HTTPS Data pump to work..

Power BI Paginated Report | Error Publishing to Power BI Service

Working on migrating exising SSRS reports from an On Prem environment to Azure.  Currently hosting reports on an A4 Power BI Embedded capacity in Azure.  I've had success in publishing and executing several RDLs on the A4 capacity.

 

However, we do have a few reports that evaluate the Connection String in the Data Source at runtime and I'm starting to run into errors.  The funny thing is that it's working perfectly when I run the report locally.  The issue is when I try to save the report to the PBI Service.

 

Here's the error I'm getting:

 

Operation returned an invalid status code 'BadRequest'

RdlWorkloadErrorCode:
PaginatedReportAuthoringError

RdlWorkloadErrorMessage:
Report is invalid. ErrorCode: rsInvalidReportDefinition, Details: The definition of this report is not valid or supported by this version of Reporting Services.

I think I may have found a difference in the Power BI Report Builder and the SSRS Report Builder.  Here's a snipet of the Data Source Properties side by side:

 

ssrs-pbi.PNG

 

In the old report builder there a fx button to create a function the will evalutate a query for the connection string but in the new PBI report builder there is not.  The odd thing is that it still works locally.

 

Has anyone tackled this before?  Any suggestions are much appreciated.

 

Thanks!!!!!

Is it possible for a Power BI report/dataset to be alerted if a source data set is not refreshed

$
0

Hi All,

Does anyone know if it is possible to have a Power BI report/dataset have some sort of alert or notification if a source data set is not refresh by the time a schedule Power BI dataset is to start.? Here's my scenario below:

 

The majority of my reports are linked to our Azure SQL server or what we call our Azure Datawarehouse that refreshes nightly that normally takes 45 min to an hour to complete but can sometimes encounter network issues and fail or take longer.  My dilema is that I have some Power BI reports on scheduled refreshes with subscription snapshots that refresh no matter what and then send out a subscription email, even if the source data fails.  Is there a way for the Power BI to be alerted or something to set up so when these source data sets fail so the Power BI datasets don't auto refresh on schedule and send duplicated stale data snapshots for 2 days prior?  I've been trying to work with my IT team and they suggested Power Shell but I don't know much about that or how it would work.

 

 

Thanks!

 Anyone experience this issue?
I can refresh this report within Power BI Desktop but once I publish this report to Service, it always fails during my nightly refresh.
I even tried to delete this report from Service and publish a fresh copy.
I have over 100 reports in Service and this is the only report having this issue.  All reports pull data from the datawarehouse.  Not sure why credentials are a problem for this one report.

Thanks in Advance

PBI Refresh (gateway ready) Issue!

$

Hi, Morning,

I found a issue during PBI do refresh(gateway ready)... that is if something wrong in end server(data source) then the refresh will be failed...

 

BUT, PBI cannot go to next refresh source  to do continue refresh... for instance, I have three sources allocated  in the Gateway,  1,  serverdatabase,  2, SharePoint ,  3, public folder.   

 

And when server database refreshed fail, then the PBI stopped next Sharpoint and public folder refresh... right ???

 

If yes,  I think it's a bug and could PBI can fix the issue or tell me the way to settle up this....

 

Tks!

Today I changed my primary email address.

Now I can't edit my own dataset as it says the dataset is being managed by my old email address (same user still).

When I click take over nothing happens!

 

I also tried deleting and re-publishing the dataset and it still comes up with the same message. Any ideas? This seems like really poor design by Microsoft..

Gateway connection error to NetSuite - cannot connect to any gateway instances of the cluster

Hi

 

We have a gateway setup on another machine between Power BI & NetSuite that had been working fine, until last weekend.

 

I think something has changed in NetSuite, the saved report URLs had all changed. In the .pbix file I needed to change the Source line code in the Advanced editor to point to the new URLs to refresh the file as I was also getting errors there.

 

On the published version in the web I’m also getting the below error:

PaulSeeq_0-1594963764927.png

 

 

I have also tried creating a new gateway and tried all the other combinations of Authentication Method and Privacy level but get the same error?

Schedule refresh failed

Hi all,

 

I need some clarification on the topic. Power BI Gateway is installed on VM. and many users do reports from their own local machine Power BI desktop and then publish to power bi service. So this gateway is now available but the scheduled refresh is failing and also the refresh takes too long? So I am not sure if its due to On-premises data gateway?

Users connect to the database via ODBC. so is there any problem with the datasource configuration settup? they need some FTP access to connect to the local gateway?

 

 

 

 

VERY slow performance Power BI-PowerApps

Hello!

 

I have created an APP in PowerApps which shows some Power BI objects from a dashboard. The problem is that it takes for ever to load the Power BI objects around 60 seconds.

I understand the problem is in Power BI Service because data is not sent fast enough in order to construct those objects into the APP in PowerApp.

 

Is there anything I can do to make it faster?

Will the premium capacity for Power BI help?

 

Thanks in advance!

Embedded PowerApps OnStart and PowerBIIntegration.data

Hi Team,

I have created a PowerApps from PowerBI and pass some data to it.

i put a galery into the canvas and I can see the received data.

I have to transform the data so I put some Set() and ClearCollect() into the OnStart section but the created variables are empty.

When I open the PowerApps from the PowerBI i am able to run the OnStart and all variables populated as I except but when I open the PowerBI report and the PowerApps visaul started the variables are empty.

Do I miss some application setup?

Do I except corretly that I should be able to use PowerBIIntegration.data in the OnStart functions to create variables?

 

Apps, change behaviour when opening App

$

I've published two Apps, called "Sales"(1) and "Inventory" (2)". Both with a dashboard and two reports.

 

At entering the app (via Apps) they behave very differently.

  • App (1) shows a overview page with the dahboard and the report. From here you select and the dashboard/report opens.
  • App (2) opens one of the reports directly (always the same report) . A link to the dashboard and the other report are shown beneath the page index on the outer left pane.

I've no clue how tho change this behaviour.

Where can I change which report to be opened directly at entering the app (like App 2), or turn this behaviour off (like App 1).

 

Your help is appreciated.
