    Hey,

     

    the documentation states that there is a limit of rows that can be exportet to csv, this limit is 30000 rows.

     

    Using the target format xlsx this limit is 150k rows, the export to xlsx option is available in Power BI Service.

     

    These limits are described here:

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/power-bi-visualization-export-data

     

    Please don't ask me why such a limit exists :-) I'm just the messenger

     

    Regards

    Tom

Yes, apparently. Also it's still is doing that thing where it removes duplicate columns, well different headers but the same content - not a good design but yes I really intended to put a duplicate column. PowerBI removes the twin column and leaves only one.
