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
Perhaps you can check if there are null or blank values in your Table below, which may be the cause of the error. You can check out the following posts:

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.
