    The type mismatch is probably happening because you're doing some conversion from the orginial data types - go into the query editor and remove any type conversions and see if that works.

Sorry, didn't mention that deleting only "changed type" wasn't enough.

 

I had to delete all steps to get the connection with the data back.

 

Anyway, I'll recreate the steps, but It's a bit of a pain if it happens again after many changes in the query editor. We'll see :)

 

Thanks!

Hi adrien - did you ever figure out why this was happening? And if there was a fix/work around? I'm having the same issue.

    Hi Evan,

     

    Yes it worked for me. I had to remove all the applied steps (5 or 6) until the step 'changed type' which seemed to cause the error.

     

    Since I re-created all the steps, the error never showed up again, so worth trying it!
