Hello!
I'm trying to transform and load data in dataflow 2 gen.
The dataflow is published but the error occurs while updating:
"The error code: Mashup Exception Expression Error: Couldn't refresh the entity because of an issue with the mashup document MashupException.Error: Expression.Error: The table could not be inserted., InnerException: Cannot convert a List type value to a Text type"
In that query there are the following steps:
1. Source (SharePoint.Tables...)
2. Navigation
3. Table.ExpandListColumn(Navigation, "PO")
4. Table.ExpandRecordColumn(#"Expanded: PO", "PO", {"lookupValue"}, {"Project Office"})
5. Table.ExpandListColumn(#"Expanded: PO 1", "Contractor")
6. Table.ExpandRecordColumn(#"Expanded: Contractor", "Contractor", {"lookupValue"}, {"Contractor"})
and so on
The columns Project office and Contractor are LookUp columns that consist of only one text value each (while creating table people choose one text value from a list for one table record). So that the type that I set for these columns is Text.
Could you please explain to me what the problem can be in my case?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Did you try highlighting all columns and choose Keep rows -> Keep errors?

Thank you! Your advice revealed errors in other columns that interfered with updating.
