Power BI Refresh Error:
57014

What does this error mean?

The query was canceled, either by the user, by `statement_timeout`, or by `idle_in_transaction_session_timeout`.

Common causes

  • 1Query exceeds the `statement_timeout` configured on the server or session
  • 2User or pipeline explicitly canceled the query
  • 3Connection was idle in transaction and hit `idle_in_transaction_session_timeout`
  • 4Long-running analytics query on an OLTP database with a short timeout

How to fix it

  1. 1Step 1: Identify why the query was canceled from the error detail (timeout vs. user cancel).
  2. 2Step 2: If it is a timeout, optimize the query or increase `statement_timeout` for long-running reports.
  3. 3Step 3: Move heavy analytics queries to a read replica or a dedicated analytics database.
  4. 4Step 4: Add indexes to speed up the query and reduce execution time.
