Hi,  @Anonymous 

 

Can you share the error message screenshot and the query in Advanced editor in pq(hide privacy)? Are you sure your data can be converted from number to text? Do you have any other operations on this column when you modify the data type? May affect the previous steps, then go wrong. Please check it.

If you still have problems, please feel free to ask me.

 

Best Regards

Janey Guo
