Can't load data from Impala

I'm using an Impala connection to my data, this used to work well. 

At some point in my analysis the source table changed name, but its attributes remain the same. 

Thus I updated the loading command in Power BI Advanced Editor, but the table won't update. 

 

1. If I follow Navigation Steps on the Query Editor, I can see it's loaded correctly.   Even so, when I hit apply. 

2. However, I go to main window and hit refresh.  And I get the error: 

"This table does not have any scalar typed columns."

 

Still back on the Query Editor exploration, if I click on Source the new table doesn't exist.  

 

Somehow PowerBI doesn't find the table with the new name. 

 

Has anyone run into this issue?  
Hopefully I don't need to recreate the table, and can just redirect it to its new name.  

 

Thanks.

    Hi Anonymous ,

     

    Will an error be reported when you refresh?
    If the refresh is successful but there is no data, the problem is probably the data source.
    If you get an error, please provide a screenshot of the error message.
