Microsoft Fabric Updates Blog

Welcome to the Power BI Support Blog!

Welcome to the Power BI Support Blog!  This blog will contain posts from the support technicians that work cases related to Power BI.  These engineers come from different teams including SQL, Office and SharePoint support with a wide range of experience.

The blog posts will be focused on common issues, troubleshooting, internals, support processes and the like.  Basically anything that would help you, the customer, and the community.  It will also give you an insight into the types of things the support groups work with.

The blog will not be used to support you directly as we have other processes for that, but based on a given case we work on and experiences, we will try to share that knowledge with the community so that they can avoid hitting similar problems.

We hope that you will find these posts useful.

Thanks to the latest backup and restore improvements, you can now restore a backup file even when the dataset size is near the Power BI Premium SKU limitation. You no longer need to be concerned that dataset size limits impact restorability. When restoring a dataset with the /forceRestore option, Power BI will try its best to perform the restore operation even when the available memory is limited.
