Since publishing can take up to 10 minutes depending on the size of the file and upload speed, it would be nice to have a progress bar with an ETA so users don't cancel out of it because they don't see any progress.

RE: Progress bar when publishing

If .pbix files(, in particular when it is datasets) are more than 100MB, then it becomes very hard to know the progress ... useful, if they consider this and implements ASAP.

Can't believe this still hasn't been implemented. This is really a basic requirement.

This is exactly what we need. It will make me want to wait, get a coffee, or go into a meeting when uploading #powerbi files.

This progress bar would definitely help when you have complicated network environment.

Doesn't even need to be a bar, just a xx/yy MB

Publishing the report is a process of uploading the file into power bi service and more. It is important to have a progress bar with time measures.

Seems like a quick fix that will enhance the experience significantly - way overdue

RE: Progress bar when publishing

My reports can take over 4 hours to publish and I never know if the upload is stuck or not. A progress bar / upload summary is essential. As of now, I can’t use PBI for this reason.
