Data missing

I import the same Excel file regularly with the same data which I extract from an online source. However, for some reason the data as from a certain month is no longer displayed in my dashboard. See below. The likes for these entries are not supposed to be 0. The rows that show 0 are the ones after August 2023. Before August I did not have any issues. Nothing changed to the column type, etc.  The data for the two other columns are displayed correctly. Any idea what could be the cause? Thanks!

Hi! The problem has been fixed! Upon checking the Excel sheet again, I noticed that the data in the columns starting from a certain date was not formatted as a table. After changing this, all the data is now visible. Thanks for the help.

Yes, I'm 100% certain. From August, PowerBI just stopped reading the data in this particular column. 

Is there a chance you shared the dataset (perhaps just the particular date and like column)?

I misunderstood earlier. I can not share unfortunately because it's company data. I have double checked again, and the data in the columns (Shares, Impressions, Likes) is exactly the same.

Hi. Thanks for trying to figur this out. It's just a basic excel sheet. I did not share any of the data. 

I meant, if you can share with me the data, so I can test it.

Are you 100% sure your data is in the excel file for those months? My guess is they are missing in the source.
