How to pull a field name instead of the ID?

Hi folks,

 

I inherited a Power BI dataset from our MS Dynamics 365 CRM. In it I have a large number of columns that show the field ID and another column with its value name. Yet some newer fields in CRM only show the column for the ID. 

 

When looking at the data source or queries, I do not see a way to pull the column name for that table and I do not see any queries creating the labels for each ID code.

 

Has anyone faced this? or suggest a solution? See the screenshots for examples.

Hi, @lrsiqueira ;

I recommend turning off the checkboxes in the Choose Columns popup. Click the Select All Columns field and make are the checkboxes are removed.
