Author Full Name not displaying
Hello,
I am getting data from a sharepoint list, it has a created by column which is translated to Author ID in Power BI... It does not show the other parameters of the user (only the ID). I am begginer to the Power BI system so I would appreciate to get some guidance in displaying the name of the person instead of their ID in power BI:
Many thanks in advance

How to Change Author ID from SharePoint list to Full Name in Power BI?
There's a second column, I believe just called Author, that is expandable with an arrow icon next to the column header. You can expand it to get the name, though if I recall it's called either just "name" or maybe "title" depending on which connector version you're using. There's other attributes in there too like email, job title, etc.
