Per current documentation from microsoft: "Scheduled refresh for imported datasets time out after two hours. This time-out is increased to five hours for datasets in Premium workspaces. If you encounter this limit, consider reducing the size or complexity of your dataset, or consider refactoring the large dataset into multiple smaller datasets."
Idea: Can pro users have an option to have the 2 hour time limit extended? or at least have a way that PowerBI make it more obvious that a data refresh failure was due to exceeding the limit. I know PowerBI can send data refresh failure emails, but it isn't super obvious that it's because its a failure due to the 2 hour technical limit being hit and just shows "Timeout". Would also be good if PowerBI can suggest upgrading to premium if it happens often or allow for system admins to see how many data refresh failures are due to hitting the 2 hour limit for governance and licensing reasons.
