Hi,

I'm trying to access the /deploy Power BI reports/ section to see what reports have been deployed. But when I do this, I get the following error message:

The menu item with name powerbipbixdeploymenuitem could not be opened.

Afterwards, I'll get the following notifications:

- Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
- Cannot retrieve file asset from LCS. Project id 1207070. Asset id.

- Cannot retrieve assets from LCS asset library. Project id 1207070. User. Please contact your administrator.

- This function should be used to deploy DirectQuery Power BI reports authored with Entity store into a production instance of Finance and Operations.

I was wondering what could be causing these errors when going to the deploy Power BI section? Would it be permission related?

Jason

Hi, can you check if you can log in to powerbi.com first with your account. since the pre-conditions mentioned in the MS document, you must have a PowerBI.com account.

The reference MS document: Configure PowerBI.com integration - Finance & Operations | Dynamics 365 | Microsoft Learn
