Problems with the text format

Hello everyone,
I have imported some Power Bi data with OnData, but the texts appear in this format Insatisfacción when I should put it Insatisfacción.
How can I solve this problem

Thank you very much

Hi @arossello,

 

It seems like your Power BI cannot recognize character 'ó'. What's your local windows language? You should know that Power BI desktop installs all the languages and shows the language that corresponds to the Windows default language.

 

Also you can choose a locale to be used when importing data for a specific report. Please check your locale settings with following steps:

1. In Power BI Desktop, go to File > Options and settings > Options.
2. Under Current file, select Regional Settings.
3. In the Locale box, select a different locale.

Thanks,
Xi Jin.

Hi @ v-xjiin-msft

I think the problem I have is double, as you can see in the XML there is a problem with the fields:

  

 <m:properties>
    <d:id m:type="Edm.String">31x1020</d:id>
    <d:projectname m:type="Edm.String">Garantías</d:projectname>
    <d:assigned_user_id m:type="Edm.String">Pere Mascar&amp;oacute;</d:assigned_user_id>

I have contacted the data provider, so you can help me, but for now I have no answer.

Thank you very much for your help.
