Power BI get data navigator icons

[ellefsondt]

I cannot for the life of me find what the icons in the get data navigator window mean. Anyone have a link or description to what these icons mean? thanks

Hi @ellefsondt ,

Thank you for engaging with the Microsoft Fabric Community.

When using the  Get Data feature in Power BI, you'll notice various icons in the Navigator window. These icons indicate the type of data you are selecting.

1. Table icon (grid) - Represents a table or structured dataset that you can load or transform.

2. Document icon (single sheet/page) – Typically indicates a view or a named query. 

3. Stacked icon – May represent related items like folders, schemas, or grouped queries, depending on the data source.

I hope that helps clarify things for you. If my response resolved your query, please consider marking it as the Accepted Solution so others can benefit too. And if you found it helpful, a Kudos would be much appreciated.

In that visual there are two icons. One for tables and one for views
