Delete pending changes
Hi elz,
Based on my research, whatever we have done in the Query Editor, the warning "There are pending changes in your queries that haven't been applied" will throw out in the report. Some changes we can find in the Applied Steps, and other changes like rename the dataset will not be listed, so that we are not able to know whether we have performed this operation. If you don't want to apply those pending changes, please close the Query Editor without Apply.
Currently, there is no OOTB feature for us to know pending changes. For this issue, I would suggest you submit a feedback in Power BI Idea forum.
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.
Best Regards,

Hi Ankit,
I guess that would work, but I don't know what changes were made and since then I have saved the file. I think that there should be an option to view a list of the changes and be able to select which changes to delete.

elz Outside of the steps you may make in altering the data set as Ankit mentions, there is no "version control" built into Power BI at the moment.
There are a couple requests for that functionality, I suggest you add some votes to one or both of these.

- Hi Eno,
I just posted and voted on one of the links you suggested. My concern is that the request is almost a year old.elz While not commented on, I do know that any request on the boards does get evaluated if it receieves over a certain amount of votes. These appear to have both met those numbers, hopefully they will get commented on to let use know if/when they will be implemented. Get as much support for the idea from colleagues if you can. I know that the product team watches those request boards for activity.
- hi eno,
yes, i agree. i thought that these requests had enough votes. i personally, don't need something as extensive as "version control". my guess is that for the message that there are pending changes to appear, a value is stored in a field in the software. i would just want to have an option that lets me disable the pending changes message not applied functionality, if that makes sense. having the ability to "see" what the changes are, aren't important to me at this time. plus, i know that developing a version control module from scratch, could take a long time.
