Invalid column name after editing SQL
Hello,
I have a report running on a SQL base managed by other team in my company
There were some changes to the SQL database. A few columns were added. Now my report won't refresh. If I try to open and refresh it on Desktop application I get this error:
"rpp_deviceweight" is one of the columns that were added to the SQL (last update)
I reloaded this table from SQL server. This column is showing in my Power Query view and it's on my native query editor
Any ideas on how to solve it?
Thanks
Hello
I think that might work but my report is way too big and complex to start from scratch.
I did get it to work though. I deleted all the tables that suffered any changes and then I reconected to them(direct query) . After that I recreated all the relationships (on these tables).
It works now!
Best Regards,

ThiagoDuarte , In the case of the latest version, power bi is able to handle add remove columns automatically. But in older version you may have handle it manually

The solution on the video won't work
I'm using direct query
In advanced editor I can't see all the columns on my table. Instead I see this:
Hi, ThiagoDuarte
Since you have made changes to the data in the data, it is best to recreate the report.
You can also refer to this related document to edit M query in advanced editor.
