Dataflow: On-Prem execution not supported for entity

$
0
0

Hi all,

 

I hope someone can help me with my problem.

 

I have a dataflow that contains two tables from SQL Server on-prem. The first table is Employees and the second is Sales. In Sales, I only have the name of the person that sold the product but not her/his Person_ID. The Employee table contains Person_ID so I merge the two tables and now the Sales table also has Person_ID. The Sales table now has a "lightning icon". 

The problem is that after I do the merging and then try to manually refresh the Dataflow I get this error: On-Prem execution not supported for entity

The Workspace is part of the Premium capacity and I'm using an Enterprise Gateway. Can someone explain to me why I get this error and how to fix?

Missing credentials for AzureBlobs in a DataFlow using On-Prem DataGateway

I have a DataFlow containing Web.Contents("...") calls. This is possible only if the DataFlow is assigned to an On-Premise DataGateway, which I have completed to setup successfully. The DataFlow works perfectly fine, I can see its data in preview mode, but on scheduled refresh I get the following error:

 

Error: Data source credentials are missing or invalid. Please update the credentials for AzureBlobs in dataflow settings and try again. Path: https://wabiweeucdsap1.blob.core.windows.net/35467a1b-d428-45ed-b6ae-46ee63d6fd8a/TimeSeriesDaily.csv?sv=2015-12-11

 

The DataFlow does not use any AzureBlobs datasources, this seems to me a platform bug. Please help, thx.

Hi Experts

 

Is it possible to use Power BI datasets with SSRS Report Builder? Alternatively if no can we connect using ODBC using Power BI Report Builder either using a customer API and or via an alternative method.  

Initiate full refresh on dataset set up for incremental refresh

$

Hello.

 

I have a dataset set up for incremental refresh. It stores the last 5 years of data and refreshes the last 2 months, as this is generally the maximum timeframe in which the source data may change. However, there are odd occasions where this timeframe might be a year.

 

For these instances, what is the best way to initiate a full refresh? Does manually refreshing the pbix file on Desktop do a full refresh? Or do I have to deselect incremental refresh on all the tables set up for it?

 

Thanks

Any guidance towards the approach to be taken?

Dataflow Question

Currently we can see which dataset/report is depenedent on which data flow.

 

Is there any way to see the reverse.e.g. how many reports are dependednt on a single dataflow.

 

For example, with the lineage view, I can currently see the following stucture. But I want to see how many dataset/report a dataflow influences. Is that possible ?

The intention here is if 100 reports are dependent on a particular DF and that DF is modified (e.g. couple of columns added / deleted) for some reason I should be able to instantly find out a way to see which reports/datset are getting affected for that modification rather than finding out later on through a broken report.

 

Thank you in advance.

PowerBI service was working fine for me until just now. I tried to create a new workflow and after I click "create" then choose workflow -> define new entity, it keeps loading forever. This message shows up when I tried hovering over the sad face icon: "us.prod.powerquery.microsoft.com took too long to respond."

 

Do you know what is causing this problem?

Online monitoring for reports with personalized metrics

$

Hello there,

 

I use usage metrics in default but I am in different need.

I want to create alarms or identifications for reports if they are working properly or not, automatically.

 

For example is it possible to create a special metric for report(for example rowcount should be greater than 0, volume should be greater than 0, etc.) and refresh it automatically and send alert/email/message when these requirements don't meet.

 

I have lots of reports in organization and maintaining them one by one is really time consuming. 

 

Is there any best practices or methods do you use?

Do you have any suggestions?

 

Thanks a lot!

 

 

 

 

DirectQuery - data missing on app.powerbi.com

$

I created a DirectQuery dashboard for timed data (helpdesk ticket number per hour, bar chart). Data is displayed correctly at Power BI Desktop. When I publish it to app.powerbi.com and connect it to my dataset, it´s still all ok.

But after a few hours update seems to go wrong: New data is about 50% too low in app.powerbi.com, while it is correct displaying at Power BI Desktop. Even if I do a manual refresh, it doesn´t get better.

Do you have an advice, how I can get a clue what goes wrong? Does anyone have an idea of what might be the cause?

Thanks,
Thomas.

UK Daylight Saving Time Change

Hi,

This has been asked before but I couldn't find an answer to my question.

 

In my reports I like to include a card that indicates the date/time when the report was last refreshed. Since the daylight saving time changed last weekend my reports in the service show the current date/time minus 1 hour. In the desktop this is not the case (I know the service runs on UTC).

 

Hopefully the attached file will be of use so you can see for yourself and hopefully someone can help with a fix.

Power BI Service report to new dataset in workspace

$

I have a report A in workspace B that is connected to dataset C. Dataset C is an organizational content pack placed in another workspace. This is working fine in Power BI service, but I would like to show this report in my application using Power BI Embedded. Seemingly, the Power BI API has issues with content packs as the API does not show dataset C as part of workspace B, thus the report is not showing properly in my application. I can click on the report name, but the report is just blank in my application, and I think it is because it cannot find the dataset tied to the report. 

 

I have figured out a few possible solutions and I need help with what would work best:

- I tried to publish dataset C directly to workspace B, but I need to tie report A to the new dataset C. Is this possible through API? 

- Is there a workaround where the Power BI API does not need to "see" the dataset tied to the report?

 

Thanks!

We are using Power Bi Embedded capacity for reports for our customers. Is there a way to monitor page renders

 per report or per workspace (as each customer gets his own workspace)

 

If so how can we achieve this ?

 

 

 


Multiple embedded Power Bi

I am trying to embed the reports in my application. And everything is working perfectly when I work with just one report. However, I want to call more than one report at the same time, so I made some changes.

Original code of the HomeController:

original.png

 

My version:

meu.png

 

Instead of just passing an EmbedConfig, I pass a list of EmbedConfig that I get with information from my database. So my EmbedReport view has been modified too:

However, it displays the first report perfectly, and the second looks frozen.

Any ideas, or tips that you can give me?

 

Power Bi Service not pulling latest rows from SharePoint list

$

Hi All,
My Power BI report in Power Bi Service, is not pulling new rows from the source, SharePoint List.
When refreshed, PBI pulls data of the exisitng rows and its latest data, but it not pulling any new rows added to the sharepoint list.

The Strange thing is that, when I download the pbix file, and opened and refreshed in Power BI Desktop, it is pulling the new rows as well.

Could anyone think what is causing Power BI Service to act like this.

Is there any service issue at the moment ?

Hi,

 

This might not be the best place to ask, but I don't really know where else to have quick feedback.

 

I have dataflows with computed entities and linked entities. They worked fine for a few weeks, but 10 hours ago, everything started to fail. They would not refresh anymore, and provide "Data can not be refreshed" as error message in the refresh.

 

Moreover, it is impossible to go into the entities online and save them, as the "validating queries" message never completes.

 

Generally, the whole dataflow structure is throwing me errors left and right, with no issues whatsoever regarding the sources (sharepoint-based files) or the ETL logic (worked fine for weeks).

 

Any ideas ? Thanks a lot.

What Role is assigned to a User added to an App?

$
0
0

When you update your app in Service and go to Permissions you can add your consumers

 

Unlike in the App Workspace Access you dont assign the role like Owner, Contributor, Viewer etc

 

Im guessing that the role is automatic as is a Viewer since apps are for sharing with report consumers?

 

Am I right?

Report URL Filtering Not Working

$

0

First time poster, however I come here all the time to figure things out...

 

I am trying to get a URL filter to work.  Whenever I put in the filter, it takes me to a login page.  However, when I don't have the filter, it takes me directly to the report.  

 

The share URL of the report is:  https://app.powerbi.com/groups/4f5f89ef-eacf-4ff4-a7a7-9d2474e164af/reports/0b006485-999b-4240-9c63-7ce76d77925e?ctid=7cf48d45-3ddb-4389-a9c1-c115526eb52e

 

That link works fine, no issues.  When I add the filter, it takes me to a login page.  All the other errors I could find on the site took people to the report, just did not apply the filter, so not sure what I am doing wrong that would not allow me to get even that far

 

Example of report with filter is:  https://app.powerbi.com/groups/4f5f89ef-eacf-4ff4-a7a7-9d2474e164af/reports/0b006485-999b-4240-9c63-7ce76d77925e?ctid=7cf48d45-3ddb-4389-a9c1-c115526eb52e?filter=DB_EmployeeFile/FullName eq 'Pilgram Schenley'

 

Thoughts?
