Hi,
I have changed one of the column data type from Number to Text from Power Query and In Power Query data is loading fine. But when i close and apply it is giving me below error in desktop :-
Failed to Save Modification to the Server. An Unexpected Error Occured.
Could you please help me on this. Its a production issue.
Thanks,
Shubham
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
