I have matrix visual for which field added is from direct query table.
After matrix table is loaded I tried to export data from matrix but Power BI again sends new query to backend DB server to load the data. Why can't PBI directly export the data if its already loaded?
Hi @rohanjaiswal ,
Based on my test, exporting data from a matrix is successful. I used Direct Query to connect to SQL Server.
Can you provide a screenshot of the error message?
Best Regards,
Stephen Tao
