Hi, we have a table in dataverse that is quite large, and now it's at the stage where its that large we cannot refresh the powerbi charts and reports we have built off this data. My question is there a way to summerise the data in this table to condense it down based on groups of columns so the refresh is bringing in the condensed version rather than the full version of the table.

Thanks

Hi @Kaptea,

Is your dataset using import mode or direct query? If using import, have you tried using incremental refresh instead so that you're not reloading the entire dataset everytime?

Alternatively, for analytical reporting you may want to consider Azure Synapse Link for Dataverse to automatically bring data into an Azure Data Lake and/or Azure Synapse Analytics workspace, which you can use as your data source in Power BI reports/dashboards. The nice thing is the refreshes will be near real time and it manages all of this for you, including deletes (you can also control the behavior of deletes in the export).
