I tried to pivot a table with aggregate function sum in python. After running python script in power bi I am not able to see index columns which i used to group by. But if I am trying to execute this code in python it's working perfectly by displaying index columns.
Here below my code;
import pandas as pd
pivotset = dataset.pivot_table(index=['movieID','user'], values=['Rating'], aggfunc='sum')
print(pivotset)
Result in Python is:
movieID user Rating
1 Ali 5
Ganesh 5
Jayaram 2
Kevin 1
Mithun 3
Musthafa 3
Shafi 4
2 Jack 5
Sasi 4
Suresh 3
But if I am trying to do same in power bi the index variables are not displaying. Please help to find this.

@Anonymous ,
Based on my test, I'm afraid power bi doesn't support index columns in pandas table. As a workaround, you can achieve the same result by using "Pivot" and "Unpivot" in power query.
Firstly click "movieID" and "user" column, click transform-> Pivot Columns, select "Rating" as value, sum as aggregation, you will achieve table like below:
Secondly, click on column "1" and "2" then click "Unpivot Columns":
After reordering the columns and renaming the column headers, you will achieve the result:
