Is there a way to automatically detect premium workspaces in power bi?

$
0
0

Hi all, 

i was looking for a way to detect power bi premium workspaces automatically, rather than go and search for its workspace name and see if it has diamond icon or not. this is because i have so many workspaces and wanted to monitor the premium workspaces.

 

Any idea on how to achieve this?Thank you!


Use custom connector in Power BI Services ?

$

I'm pretty new in the creation of a custom connector but I was able to build something which works in power bi desktop
Now, I would like to make some refresh online, so I follow the following tuto:
Custom Data Connector: How to Deploy and Test - Microsoft Fabric Community

And the test connection has been implemented and it is successfull

 

my .mez files is well deployed on my server 

Testy_0-1719860714211.png

 

In Power BI Services, I go in manage gateway, there I'm able to select the gateway that I deployed on my server; but when I try to create the connection, it is returning the following error message:

Unable to create connection for the following reason:
Unable to connect the data source. Either the data source is inaccessible, a connection time out occured or the data source credentials are invalid. Please verify the data source configuration and contact a data source administrator to troubleshoot this issue.

 

Details:

Test-GateWay: We cannot convert the value null to type Logical.

 

The only settings required by my connection is the api url, everything is working perfectly in Power BI desktop but not in services.

I installed Power BI desktop on the server on which the gateway is installed, and I am able to use the custom connector in Power BI Services, so the server is able to query the API

 

Any idea of how could I try to debug that?

 

Many thanks in advance for your help 

 

Power Query Datasource Privacy Settings

Within paginated reports, I have a query where I am pulling data from sharepoint online and Azure SQL database. Within the power query editor, I can combine the data and get the data output just fine. When I try and render that report in power bi service it says I need to specify a privacy level for all connections. I have a privacy level defined for SQL but I can't find where that is supposed to be set to give one to the Sharepoint connection

Personal PowerBI no longer working

We have been leveraging PowerBI Personal Gateway for about a year now, and connecting to our on-prem MySQL Database.   It was working, but then we did a update to it per-requirements of the PowerBI Gateway and then it stopped working and stopped refreshing data.

 

We updated to PowerBI Standard, that didn't work

Now as we dig in more, here is what the logs are showing even though the username and password have not changed.

 

Unable to update connection credentials.

Unable to connect to the data source. Either the data source is inaccessible, a connection timeout occurred, or the data source credentials are invalid. Please verify the data source configuration and contact a data source administrator to troubleshoot this issue.

Details:

An error happened while reading data from the provider: 'One or more errors occurred.'

Please have this information handy if you choose to create a support ticket.

Timeout issues in Power BI Reports

$
0
0

While accessing the embedded reports in our developed application(angular), we encountered a refresh issue with Power BI reports within an hour and a sign-in issue after an hour. When retrieving any report and leaving it idle for a while, the report eventually gives a refresh error. After some more time, the system times out and signs you out of Power BI. When you click the Sign In button, nothing happens; you are not signed back in. You have to navigate away from the page and come back to rerun the report.

Is there any way to increase the timeout for these reports?

Dynamic RLS One Region Manager Covering Multiple Regions

Hello. 

 

I currently have a Sales table filtered by RLS via Region column in Sales Person table.  So, each regional manager can only see sales per their region.

 

etane_1-1719859902952.png

However, now I need one Region Manager to be able to access sales in two regions.  I've set up tables as such below.  However, RLS doesn't seem to be filtering now.

What adjustments do I need to make to allow one Region manager to access multiple Sales region?


Thanks.

Power BI Dataflow refresh error from Azure Blob Container - "data source modified"

$

Hi eveyone, I am getting data from Dynamics/Dataverse via Azure Synapse Link to Azure Blob Container as multiple csv files. Then I have dataflow in Power BI online service to load the data from these csv files. Sometimes I get during dataflow refresh following error: "Error: DataSource.Error: AzureBlobs: The data source appears to have been modified since it was last accessed. Refreshing may resolve this error". I tried with different refresh schedules but it has only minimized error occurrence and not solved the problem.

 

Do you have any solution for my problem? What is from your experience the best way to get dataverse data to power bi, which is stored in Azure Blob Container?

Looking for the Power BI API for MQuery

$

When administering a Power BI enviorment were the reports source their data from on-prem SQL databases I've found it is hard match a problem SQL query I see in the database with the symantic model that is running it.  I'd like to use a Power BI API to pull the MQuery's from all the symantic models in all the workspaces on the tenant.  I've done this using other APIs to create SQL inventory tables of the workspaces, datasets, and other things.  I'd like to do the same with the MQuery's now.

 

The only way I was able to find an API call that might work was using an AI search, I found this: 

"https://api.powerbi.com/v1.0/myorg/groups/{workspace_id}/datasets/{dataset_id}/queries"
Running it just gives this error "No HTTP resource was found that matches the request URI"
 
My questions are, do I have the right API URL?  Is there a way to do this?  If this is not the right API what is the right one?   

New Deployment Access - Contributors

Has anyone seen this message pop-up lately for Deployment piplines?  It sounds obvious contributors will be able to now deploy without needing "Member" role but, I'm curious to find more information or links or where to disable if needed.

 

New deployment access. Beginning in late July 2024, workspace contributors with access to this pipeline will be able to deploy content.

Cannot download pbix from service (ExportData feature is disabled ... as it is modified by Xmla)

$

I can't download the pbix and it gives a meaningless error message:

 

dbeavon3_0-1719870705128.png

 

According to Microsoft, the internal logs say that I've been modifying the model via xmla endpoints.  Here is what is provided in the logs:
Microsoft.PowerBI.PublishRefreshService.ExportPowerBICompanionFailedException: DownloadReport: ExportData feature is disabled for modelId: 123, databaseName: 3276ac96-1235-1239-1238-43e645c26268 as it is modified by Xmla endpoint.

 

Here is the link showing that modifying a model via xmla will void the warranty, and prevent downloading.

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/create-reports/service-export-to-pbix#limitations-when-downloading-a-semantic-model-pbix-file

 

 

However there are a few issues I have with this.  As a preface, I should say that I uploaded an additional/redundant copy of the same model and it is able to be downloaded.  It is only the original that has problems.

 

My issues:

  • I don't recall modifying the original copy of the model via xmla.
  • When I look at the TMSL for the original model, and the new one, they are virtually identical.  Nothing of interest is different between the two.
  • There is apparently no tool or annotation that will tell me when I modified the xmla, and what I specifically changed.  So what information is the PBI service referencing , when it tells me that something was changed via XMLA?  It seems like the burden of proof should be on the service to track the corruption of my model.  I can't find any annotation about changes in the TMSL, or in Dax Studio.
  • Why is the service giving me such a meaningless error message?  Why must I always open these support tickets with Mindtree whenever the errors are meaningless/generic? 
  • If the two copies of the model are essentially the same, why would it make a difference if I actually did modify it via XMLA?

 

I read the docs, and they are unhelpful, as usual.  Docs aside, I would pay good money for the PBI service to actually generate meaningful errors at times like these.  (The gateway/refresh errors shown in the service are also extremely unhelpful.)

 

Any information would be appreciated.    I expect that I will have to spend several days trying to recreate the steps that cause the PBI service to become unhappy with my model.  I don't have that many theories about what changes might have corrupted the model (... althought it might even be the "import REST api" that caused the problem "from day-one"...  that api is pretty buggy, and it wouldn't surprise me if it causes this issue).

Login Issue with GIS map on Power BI

Hello,

I signed into Power BI this morning to update June's data. I was prompted to sign into ArcGIS, but when I clicked the sign-in button, an error message appeared. Attached is the screenshot.

This issue happens on my PowerBi Workspace and PowerBi Desktop app. 

Everything worked fine last week, so I am assuming the ArcGIS User Types update threw something off. Any ideas on how to fix this or any workaround ideas?

Data refresh failure, connecting to Google Big Query

$
0
0

My datasource is Google BigQuery, and I have scheduled Auto refresh weekly, but it failed constantly starting from a few days ago, the error message says this: [Resource Governing: This operation was canceled because there wasn't enough memory to finish running it. Either reduce the memory footprint of your dataset by doing things such as limiting the amount of imported data, or if using Power BI Premium, increase the memory of the Premium capacity where this dataset is hosted. More details: consumed memory 16155 MB, memory limit 15405 MB, database size before command execution 978 MB. See https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2159753 to learn more.]

 

From reading other similar posts, I know that it is because when Power BI does data refresh, it takes the uncompressed dataset, the compressed old set and the compressed new set so the memory is significantly higher than the compressed size of the model.

 

I am having Pro license, and I am not planning to pay for Premium (no money), so I am stuck with 1GB memory for refresh, nor can I click the "Enable large dataset button", nor can I use the Metrics app to inspect my data refresh process.

 

When stuck with Pro, I saw there are online tutorials teaching viusalization of refresh process using SSMS sql server profiler to find memory spikes for us to optimize data model and calculated columns and stuff, but I cannot connect to the sql server of my dashboard, and I suspect it is because the datasource is from Google BigQuery.

 

My question is, is there other ways to solve this data refresh failure without upgrading BI license?

Generate Bearer Token for React embedded report

$

Hello - Looking for some direction and detailed instructions, please.
I am trying to generate a token for embedded reports in a React front end.

I have followed this article: https://medium.com/globant/how-to-embed-a-power-bi-report-in-react-f27e975e0a

I found this code: https://github.com/KotanaSai21/powerbi-embedded-React-demo/blob/main/GenerateToken.csx

I wrote a Java API for React to call in case it needed to be client->server->client thing.

 

Step 1 (in the article) will work; I get an access_token.

However, using that access_token as a bearer token in Steps 2 and Steps3 result in a 401.

(Using Postman)

Also, when using Embed Token - Generate Token - REST API (Power BI Power BI REST APIs) | Microsoft Learn,

(as also described in Step 3 of the article), it is successful from here when I "try this", but again a 401 from Postman. I notice that the Bearer Token used here in the MS Learn link is much longer than the access_token I receive in Step 1 from Postman.  Where/How does it get the Bearer Token used in the MS Learn link?

Looking for some direction on doing this programmatically, please - either via React or Java microservice - I just need it to work. 😃
I am using a service principal for tenant id, along with client_id,  and client_secret, ect.
Thanks in advance-

Hi , 
We are trying to configure ADLS Gen2 with our Microsoft Fabric Workspace ( To take backups of the semantic models)
We have taken care of all the pre requisites as mentioned below
 
The user who is setting up this connection has below roles
Fabric WorkSpace - Admin
ADLS Gen 2 - Owner , Storage Blob Data Owner , Storage Blob Data Contributor
 
The ADLS Gen 2 is in the same Tenant And Region as our Microsoft Fabric Workspace
Hierarchical Namespace (HNS) is enabled in ADLS Gen 2
TLS (Transport Layer Security) version 1.2 is set on the ADLS Gen 2
 
However , when configuring the ADLS Gen 2 in our Fabric workspace , we are getting the below error
"CdsaUserStorageOwnerRoleRequiredException: You can't connect to this storage account because you don't have the necessary role-based-access-control (RBAC) permissions. Make sure you're assigned the owner role for this storage account, and try again"
 
Not sure why we are getting the above error , as the user is already an Owner on the stoarge account.

I have Power BI Premium Per User License.
while using export to file for power bi reports in power automate i cam acroos this :

License requirements

  • The report you're exporting must reside in a workspace backed by a Premium, Embedded, or Fabric capacity.
  • The exportToFile API, is not supported for Premium Per User (PPU).

Now I am confused between which license to buy ?
