Data Type not appearing in report view after changing data type

Hi All,

 

My current dataset is from excel when i changed the data type in power query for numerical data it show the correct data type, however as soon as and close and apply the numerical data type changes to text, however when I write measures it take the value to be numerical, but when i use it for a AI visual like Key influences the data is not supported.

@Vaish2024 , If you have made those columns as Text in Power query, they will not appear as numbers in visualization. But you should able to use them in explicit measure as number.
