Connecting to a sharepoint list with multi line text column

Hi Guys,

I am connecting to a sharepoint list which includes a column of type 'multi line text' which also appends any new data. It only returns the most recent entry for this column. Is it possible to include all data?

Here is part of my advanced editor code:

 

 

 

let
    Source = SharePoint.Tables("https://my.sharepoint.com/my_site", [Implementation=null, ApiVersion="Auto"]),
    #"36a2e38a-4901-480a-a829-240abdf5a198" = Source{[Id="36a2e38a-4901-480a-a829-240abdf5a198"]}[Items],

Thanks for the link, but having read it twice, I'm still as confused. I have no idea how to make this work in Power BI. Thinking my best option is to change the sharepoint solution by removing the append changes option and building up the history using the concat function in power automate
