Get persons name from Sharepoint multiselect person column

[guyatisk]

How can I get the name(s) from a field in SharePoint for Power BI?  I see that the problem with this being a Table instead of a record is due to the fact that in SharePoint, this can contain more than one person, understandably.  How do I get this data and represent it into a report where I can slice data on these results?  Thanks for the information.

Hi @guyatisk ,

In the Power Query editor, locate the column with the Multiple Choice Person field. Click the expand icon (two arrows) on the column header to expand the field. If the name is in a nested table within the expanded column, you will also need to expand those tables.
