Additional Information

This issue is caused by a dataset in the big data file share having a period in the folder/dataset name. This is a known limitation where the Portal Map Viewer UI does not support Big Data File Share datasets with special characters, such as periods, in the dataset name. The specific dataset in this case is 'ch.swisstopo.swisseo_vhi_v100_2024-03-07t2400_20240502124054' After removing the periods from this name, the issue is not reproducible. Avoid using periods or other special characters in Big Data File Share dataset names moving forward.

Workaround

Remove the '.' characters from all dataset names. For example, change 'ch.swisstopo.swisseo_vhi_v100_2024-03-07t2400_20240502124054' to 'ch_swisstopo_swisseo_vhi_v100_2024-03-07t2400_20240502124054'.
