Earlier: Dataverse only → Power BI semantic model → Paginated report This worked because all required columns were coming from one supported model/source. Now: Dataverse + Azure Databricks columns → same Power BI semantic model → Paginated report Paginated report is failing/blank because the semantic model now has a mixed source model, and the Databricks master columns may not be resolving properly through the semantic model when paginated report queries it. Most likely causes: The Databricks columns are not imported/refreshed properly in the semantic model Power BI visual may show them due to local/desktop cache or DirectQuery behavior. Paginated report reads the published semantic model, not your desktop file. Relationship issue between Dataverse table and Databricks master table If relationship is inactive, many-to-many, wrong key, or filter direction issue, paginated report DAX may return blank. Paginated report query is still based on old Dataverse-only fields After adding Databricks columns, the dataset query in Report Builder may need to be refreshed/rebuilt. Composite model / DirectQuery issue If Dataverse is Import and Databricks is DirectQuery, paginated report may behave differently while querying the semantic model. Credentials/gateway issue for Databricks in Power BI Service Dataset may publish, but service-side refresh/query may fail for Databricks credentials.

Hi there, I have read your project requirements. You need an experienced Power BI and Azure specialist to investigate and resolve issues with a paginated report that stopped working after integrating Azure Databricks data into an existing Dataverse-based semantic model. The goal is to identify the root cause, validate the data model, relationships, refresh behaviour, gateway configuration, and ensure the paginated report functions correctly with the combined data sources. We can perform a complete review of the semantic model, Databricks integration, dataset refresh process, DAX queries, report builder datasets, relationships, composite model configuration, and Power BI Service settings. We will troubleshoot the issue end-to-end, implement the required fixes, and provide recommendations to ensure reliable report execution going forward. A few questions before we proceed: ============================= Is the Databricks connection configured as Import, DirectQuery, or a composite model? Are there any refresh failures, gateway errors, or credential warnings visible in Power BI Service? Does the paginated report return blank results for all records or only when Databricks fields are included? Can you provide access to the PBIX file, semantic model structure, and the paginated report dataset query for investigation? Best Regards, Srashtasoft Team

Hi, I understand the issue with your Paginated Report failing after introducing Azure Databricks data into an existing Dataverse-based Power BI semantic model. With experience in Power BI, DAX, data modeling, SQL, and reporting, I can troubleshoot the complete data flow from Dataverse and Databricks through the semantic model to the Paginated Report. I will investigate relationship issues, composite model behavior, dataset refresh status, gateway and credential configurations, and Report Builder dataset queries to identify the root cause. My approach includes: ✔ Validating Databricks data availability in the published semantic model ✔ Reviewing relationships, filter directions, and model design ✔ Testing DAX queries used by the Paginated Report ✔ Verifying refresh, gateway, and credential settings ✔ Rebuilding or optimizing Report Builder datasets if required ✔ Ensuring the report returns accurate results in the Power BI Service I can start immediately and work through the issue systematically until the Paginated Report functions correctly. Best Regards, Noreen Sajjad Data Analyst | Power BI Developer

I can solve this by opening the Paginated Report Builder and you use the query designer to refresh the DAX for the new Databricks columns.i also use the Power BI service settings to re-enter your Databricks OAuth credentials. I can fix the active relationships between your Dataverse and Databricks tables, and that will make your report display data properly again.

Hi! Your paginated report worked before the Databricks integration, which strongly suggests the issue is now within the semantic model, relationships, composite model behavior, or service-side query resolution. These problems often appear when Power BI visuals work but Paginated Reports return blank because they query the published semantic model differently. I will perform a full analysis of the Dataverse + Azure Databricks + Power BI semantic model setup, validate relationships, DAX queries, refresh behavior, credentials, gateways, and composite model limitations. I will identify whether the issue is caused by DirectQuery/Import interactions, inactive relationships, dataset refresh problems, or Report Builder dataset queries. Once the root cause is found, I will implement the fix, validate the paginated report output, and ensure the solution remains stable for future Data Integration and reporting requirements. Can you confirm whether the Databricks tables are Import, DirectQuery, or Direct Lake, and whether the paginated report dataset was refreshed after the new columns were added? Open chat now, and let's troubleshoot your Azure, Power BI, Business Intelligence, Data Modeling, Data Integration, Data Visualization, Data Analysis, and Data Management issue and get the paginated report working again.

I understand the challenge you’re facing: your paginated report worked seamlessly when all required columns came from Dataverse, but now that the semantic model includes both Dataverse and Azure Databricks sources, the report is failing or returning blanks. This is a common issue with mixed source models, and I can help resolve it. Approach Model Audit – I will review the semantic model to confirm how Databricks columns are being imported or queried. This includes checking refresh behavior, DirectQuery vs Import mode, and ensuring service‑side credentials are correctly configured. Relationship Validation – I will validate relationships between Dataverse tables and Databricks master tables. Inactive, many‑to‑many, or mis‑keyed relationships often cause blank outputs in paginated reports. Paginated Report Query Alignment – I will refresh and rebuild the dataset queries in Report Builder to ensure they reference the updated semantic model fields, not legacy Dataverse‑only fields. Composite Model Testing – I will test how the composite model behaves in the Power BI Service, ensuring that both Dataverse (Import) and Databricks (DirectQuery) sources resolve consistently. Gateway & Credentials – I will verify that Databricks credentials are properly set up in the Power BI Service, so refreshes and queries succeed without desktop cache dependencies.
