Hello there,
Does anyone know why Text Analytics in Power BI no longer work , it only started from this month, so I thought it might be related to the desktop new release.
I am analysing customer feedback ,
for score sentiment, it returned all errors,
for Extract key Words, it returns
"Expression.Error: We cannot convert the value "[Function]" to type Function.
Details:
Value=[Function]
Type=[Type]"
I tried different text format, has no luck so far.
below is the partial query
#"Applied Score sentiment" = AIFunctions.PostProcess(Table.AddColumn(#"Changed Type", "Score sentiment", each #"Score sentiment"([message], null)), "Score sentiment", "CognitiveServices.ScoreSentimenttexttext") meta [FunctionBrowser="TextAnalytics"],
#"Applied Extract key phrases" = AIFunctions.PostProcess(Table.AddColumn(#"Applied Score sentiment", "Extract key phrases", each #"Extract key phrases"([message], null)), "Extract key phrases", "CognitiveServices.ExtractKeyPhrasestexttext") meta [FunctionBrowser="TextAnalytics"]
Thanks in advance!
Solved! Go to Solution.

Good day Power BI community:
I find myself facing the same problem, when trying to use the AI services of Power BI with the PRO per User license, all the functions of TextAnalytics throw me the same error:
Expression.Error: Unable to convert the value "[Function]" to type Function.
Details:
Value=[Function]
Type=[Type]
How can we correct this?
Thank you very much for the information you can share with me.
Thank you @amitchandak ! this is very helpful to see it's not just me have this issue. Hope Power BI can resolve this quickly.
