Python: DateTimeIndex not showing in PowerBI
- 7 years ago
Anonymous,
I can reproduce your issue, just add a statement in the button of your code like pattern below:
# 'dataset' holds the input data for this script import datetime import pandas as pd import numpy as np def datetimeix(df): df['Date\t'] = pd.DatetimeIndex(df['Date\t']) df.set_index('Date\t', inplace = True) return df df = pd.read_csv(r'C:\Users\JimmyTao\Desktop\Test.csv') dataset = dfAfter expand, the result is like this:

I got similar issue in getting data from a API datasource (Wind Financial System-A Chinese financial terminal like Bloomberg). Python script code is as follow:
import pandas as pd
from WindPy import *
w.start()
Wind_Data = w.edb("M0039354", "2000-01-01", "2024-11-11","Fill=Previous")
GDP = pd.DataFrame(Wind_Data.Data, columns=Wind_Data.Times, index=Wind_Data.Fields).T
GDP
In Python window, it did feedback transposed dataset include a date index and a column of GDP data. But in Power BI, the return left only GDP data column. The date index column disappeared. Python command line running result below:
>>> import pandas as pd
>>> from WindPy import *
>>> w.start()
.ErrorCode=0
.Data=[Already connected!]
>>>
>>> Wind_Data = w.edb("M0039354", "2000-01-01", "2024-11-11","Fill=Previous")
>>> GDP = pd.DataFrame(Wind_Data.Data, columns=Wind_Data.Times, index=Wind_Data.Fields).T
>>> GDP
