New column added to Cosmo DB collection not appearing in Power BI Desktop table.

A new column is not showing into Power BI from the data source ( Cosmo db).

 

Pushed an update which added a new column into my cosmo db collection, the column is stored as a record which should expand into two columns. 

 

I've tried refreshing the data, adding the column manually in Advanced Editor, clearin cache, resetting credientials and viewing the opening the table in a new file.

 

However, this column is still missing. Any thoughts? 

 

Thanks

Thank you for your advice, but I've managed to resolve the issue myself. I just need to manually add the column in advanced query and mess around with the sort to get the option to expand this column into two.

Hi @BRVL ,

What is your connection mode? Can you see the new column in the Navigator page? Or did you get an error message when you refreshed?

I cannot reproduce your issue. When I use import mode import data, the new column would appear after I refresh the data.

 

I have also found a similar post, please refer to it to see if it helps you.

Refresh powerBI data with additional column 

 

If it does not help, please provide more details.
