Automatic data type detection
Hi experts!
I have access to a Source that has multiple column, all of them declared as text.
it doesn't matter if there is a date, numbers etc - the source declared everything as a text.
We are talking about multiple tables with a lot of columns.
Now I would like to change this columns into the right format in the Dataflow.
Is there any automatic way to define each column?
In Power Query, select all the columns ( ctrl-A) then go to the Transform tab and choose "Detect Data Type"
