@Anonymous , what you mean by download. I doubt there is three column limit to load data in power bi.

If want to copy data from power bi, refer : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1_XlyzV-PcY

you can do this in PQ, remove columns.If you want to show other columns, you can delete the remove step and do it again.

Hi Ryan

My question is when loading stage i delete those column i need now , and after 1 month later , if i need to load more field , do i allow to add another 6 more field from the same raw data table.

Yes, you can do that. You can find the remove steps in PQ, you can undo the remove step to see all the fields and delete what you don't need again.

hope the doc below is helpful.
