Issue in documentation in power bi

Hi Team, I am finding issues while using info.view.columns() function in power bi new table and also in Dax Query view. It's showing error like " Failed to resolve name 'INFO.VIEW.COLUMNS()'. It is not a valid table, variable or function name."

I am using June 2024 version. Please help me to solve this issue.

Hi, @Diya12 

Regarding the issue you raised, my solution is as follows:

1.Firstly, as anmolmalviya05 mentioned, you might consider upgrading your Desktop to the latest version. Below is a screenshot of the most recent version:

Here’s the download link:

Download Microsoft Power BI Desktop from Official Microsoft Download Center

 

2.Secondly, at the moment, I haven’t found the DAX function you’re using. I suspect you might be looking for the INFO.COLUMNS() function rather than INFO.VIEW.COLUMNS().
