Getting a newly added column in SharePoint List to a Merged Query in Power Query

Hi Community!

I checked the source and saw that the newly added column is present in the preview of one of the 2 merge sourse datasets.

I then checked the next step, in which i had expanded the 2nd dataset (as it was a Left Outer Join).

In there i saw that the new column was not marked for visibility. When i checked its box, the column became available.

@DevadathanK , You can again repeat the merge step. Or right-click on the table in data transformation mode and open Advance Editor. Take a back that script and add columns there.

Create a duplicate of your existing pbix and follow the below steps.

 

  1. Go to edit query
  2. Navigate to the previous step of merge query
  3. Add merge step again (You will get a popup - insert new step)
  4. Now delete the old merge step
