? Dataflows: Basic Auth with blank password

$
0
0

I have a dataset that works fine in Power BI Desktop but not in Dataflows. It has a source that connects to a rest api . API key is used as the username and the password is left blank.

 

When I copy the dataset to dataflows this error message appears:

"The given credential contains a property with a null value. Data source kind: Web. Property name: Password."

 

How can I fix it?

Thanks!


Power BI Embedded: QPUs vs Cores

External Access to report with Sharepoint Folder data

$

Hi Power BI Community 🙂

 

I am building a report with the data from SharePoint folder, and I will publish the report to the service later.

My question is that:

 

I will share the online report with some external customers, who does not have the access to the SharePoint folder that this report is based on. Will they still be able to view the data of this report? Or we need to also grant them the read-access to the SharePoint folder?

 

Thank you in advance!

Export user reports shares with powershell

As PBI Admin, is there a way to find all report shares in our PBI service account?

 

I am able to use powershell to export Workspace security using Invoke-PowerBIRestMethod and Group Users endpoint, https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/rest/api/power-bi/groups/getgroupusers#code-try-0. But this is workspace security not shares. If I export PBI Activity Logs then I can see there is 'Activity' for ShareReport and ShareDashboard, who shared it with 'UserId', and 'ItemName' has the report/dasbhoard name, https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/admin/service-admin-auditing. The Activity Log has a couple downsides: 1) it says doesn't say who it was shared with, and 2) you can export 1 day at a time. 

 

Please advise how I can find all report shares and the user who was given access. 

 

 

find out last time report pbix updated date

Hello, how can I find when the last time a report PBIX file got updated and published,  not refreshed.

published report using r source file for creating visuals

$

Hello,

 

I have a report created locally with R and PowerBI desktop.

In this report, I generate some plots by running R code from my computer. This means that in the "R script editor" I simply have a line like: "source("C:/Users/Myself/PowerBI/Script_Plot01.r")"

 

Now I want to publish this report. I have the 'pro' license, so it shouldn't be a problem...but I don't know 'where' to put the r code file to be available to PowerBI.

I have tried to link the source with a folder in Sharepoint, so having a line like: "source(" https:// myself. sharepoint.com /PowerBI /Script_Plot01.r  ")"

But it doesn't work. I got the following "Script Runtime Error":

Error in file(filename, "r", encoding = encoding) : cannot open the connection

In addition: Warning message: In file(filename, "r", encoding = encoding) : InternetOpenUrl failed: 'The server name or address could not be resolved'

 

I found a similar question back to 2018, but was not solved:

 https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Service/Published-R-reports-with-sourced-scripts/td-p/426422

 

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks!

Dashboard tiles have huge delays rather than reports

$

0

Hi all, I've searched for this throught the forums but not found any similar behaviour. When scheduled refresh of reports ends and the report successfully refreshes, there's always from 5 to 10 minutes before dashboard tiles get the refresh as well. The behaviour have been there for some weeks and seems not related to report performance as this one gets updated.

 

The behaviour is on the mobile app as well.

 

Anyone has faced this kind of issue?

Thanks in advance.

 

 

Issue With Scheduled Refreshes/Gateway Suddenly Stopping Working

$

I'm looking for some help with gateways. The PBI scheduled refreshes at my company suddenly stopped working overnight, from what I can tell, the error has something to do with the gateway. Unfortunately, everyone who was involved in setting up the gateway is now gone, so I'm at a loss as to what to do. We use On Premises gateway in personal mode that shows it is online and ready to be used, and we connect to a SQL Server. Also, when I refresh one of the reports in PBI Desktop, it refreshes fine with no issues, and the query editor doesn't show any errors. MS support has not responded to my ticket.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Anyone has seen something like this in the Past?

 

Regular Excel file located in a shared folder is blocking the Auto Refresh in Service. Could this be a server configuration?

Any ideas or things I could try?

Incremental refresh and full process

$

I set up incremental refresh on my model, and it is working, it stores 5 years and updates 1 month. My source database refreshes previous 7 days data every hour, then 6 months every evening, then all history weekly. I want to have it do a process full on a weekly basis or daily basis. Looks like that is possible in SSMS. Is there a programatic way to do that? It is Power BI Premium.  On AAS I can set up a logic app to call the API to process full, for example. Thanks!

Dear all,

 

I am building a Dashboard with tiles and include images on those tiles. These images are located on SharePoint. This works fine on the laptop, but on mobile devices none of the images are loaded. Is there a certain instruction or solution for this? I included a screenshot with both images (showing the black tile with in Dutch 'image can not be loaded') and tiles with text , which are working fine. Thanks for your help!

How do I refresh a webpage source without having my computer on?

Hi everyone, 

 

I need help with refreshing my report without having my computer on, is it somehow possible? 

 

The data I want to share is from 2 public websites, thus I don't see a reason why this should be a problem. 

 

This is the error code I get from scheduled refreshes: 

AndrejBI_1-1602924965914.png

This is my gateway: 

AndrejBI_0-1602924933067.png

I am thinking whether it's possible to change the gateway directly to the websites instead of using my computer, any help will be appreciated!

Hello,

 

I've been searching here but I couldn't see an specific answer to this. Sorry if I'm missing something

 

We want to share apps to clients (different organization), each client have a separate DB therefore they got specific workspace / app. 

we can share them the apps and they can open without any problem having a pro account and the link itself, but they can't see our apps within their Power Bi structure (shared with me, list of apps, ...)

 

How can we make the apps available in Service , for outside organization users? It's not possible? It's a config problem in our tenant or their tenant? I'm not PBI/Azure Admin, by the way, as this is a large company we got a separate team for those tasks but I think they are not so familiar with power bi problems. 

thanks

Move Power-BI report to another workspace along with user access and dataset

$

Hi All,

 

I have my Power-BI reports in multiple workspaces(80-90) but I want to make few consolidated workspace(10-12) for all reports based different domains.

 

So for that, I need to move all the reports from existing one to new workspace. I tried by copying report to another workspace but it is not copying the user accesses and datatset(still giving reference to older one) to new workspace, Even I'm not sure if it is copying the bookmarks created for the report in older one to new. The number of reports are huge. So is there any way I can do it with automation?

 

Also, I did analysis on Power-BI Apps, it seems great compared to workspace but for that also I need to manually publish the report in App and then give access to users/User group one by one which will become time consuming.

 

Can anyone help me out to make it quick and easy?

New Look Not Working

Hi reaching out as Im at a lose of what to do. Since the new look button appeared on Power Bi service it has not worked for me. Our company has had numerourse meetings with microsoft support and demontrated the issue or sent fiddler recordings but no one seems to be able to resolve the issue. We all asumed that with the general new look role out on 7th October power bi would automatically change to the new look. However I am still working in the OLD look.

 

 

Any suggestions

Advice around publishing projects to web

$

My organisation periodically publishes dashboards for public reporting on our website. Prior to releasing these dashboards, we have a bit of a private briefing period where the projects are sent to both internal and external stakeholder for review.

 

As many of our external stakeholders are a rotating circle of small community groups, it isn't feasbile to set everyone up with a pro licence.

 

When we were using Tableau, we could publish projects to MyTableau and essentially make them private (so that a URL was created, but that the projects wouldn't be visible on our Tableau account profile, and wouldn't pop up anywhere like viz of the day. I'm wondering if anything like this is possible via power BI? I've done some test practices of publishing to web, but it gives me a bit of a warning saying that Microsoft may display the project on a public website.

 

Essentially I don't need to keep the content hyper secure as it is intended for publication anyway - I'd just like to ask that Microsoft not publish the workbook on any forum or searchable webpage until we are ready to launch the dashboard publicly. Is this possible?

Problem with data refresh - Concurrent multiple refreshes for a single dataset

$

Hi,

 

I m encountering problem wrt data refresh. Noticed... that at times, multiple refresh triggers gets executed.

This doesn't happen everyday or on every refresh. The size of dataset is very large and sometimes takes up way more time than normal.  Since the refresh is on Service, it is not possible to cancel refreshes on PBI reports.

 

When multiple instances are running, the UI doesn't show the loading/ refresh -in-progress icon. However, when you check the Refresh History, the status can be seen as In-progress.

 

Should this be reported as a bug?

Is it possible to provide cancel option for report refresh ... similar to Data Flows?
