Hi @Anonymous ,

 

As nvprasad mentioned before, I think your data model should be Direct Query. And I find a solved post with similar issue like yours. I suggest you to refer to this post to learn more details. 

Did you do some transform on 'Person Fields'?  I think you can try to remove some steps in Power Query Editor.

For referenece: Solved: Unable to convert an M query in table [table name]... - Microsoft Power BI Community

You also can refresh your report in latest version Power BI Desktop and publish your report to Power BI Service.

Hi cmanso,

 

It looks like one of the transformation in done on 'Person Fields' table casusing the issue while getting data from the source data. I believe you mgiht have ,connnected to the data sourdce in direct query.

 

Kindly check transformations of 'Person Fields' table in PowerQuery Editor.
