Hi,
I've run into a problem where I am mergeing two queries in where 2 tables are joined by two combined columns. These columns are both texts and are combined first prior to merge query. I receive this error. Running the same tables and merging in excel works. No idea why...
also should add, neither column on neither table has any errors nor missing values.
Expression.Error: We cannot convert the value "[Value]" to type Record.
Details:
Value=[Value]
Type=[Type]
EDIT: Also forgot to mention, I am able to refresh my dataset via the desktop app, I am only getting this error running a schedule refresh.
I have checked my credentials in on all my sources.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi, @munnaz

No that's not it, there are no blanks or null values either. Also forgot to mention, I am able to refresh my dataset via the desktop app, I am only getting this error running a schedule refresh.
