'Relationship Tag' error google sheet to Power BI.

[Anonymous]

  Hello

I was trying to connect a google sheet to Power BI so that i could extrat data from the same. But i got the problem  - "Relationship tag contains incorrect attribute. Line 2, position 86." 

This was weird because i have tried to connect a google sheet to Power BI earlier but did not face this problem before.

Could anyone help me with this?

Thanks a lot in advance

Help me solve this problem please, lel excel I have it linked to AppSheet, and loading data and updating the power BI gives me the target error.

I had the same mistake, it was because in the excel sheet I used I had to download it from google drive and lost the table format. Not noticing this detail threw me the error in PBI, adding the table format disappeared the error. I hope I have helped and confirm if this error is resolved with this tip.

The same thing happened to me when I tried to connect a book with sheets that had pivot tables. I omitted the sheet that had the pivottable and it was fixed

Hiding pivot tables worked for me. Thanks

@Anonymous , In this blog, check the part to connect power bi with Google sheet

https://community.powerbi.com/t5/Power-Platform-Integrations/Power-Apps-Power-BI-Better-together-Write-Back-From-BI/m-p/1044976#M16

You will get a link like

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/<ID>/edit?usp=sharing

And modified it, like this to make it work

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/<ID>/export?format=xlsx&id=<ID>

Then add it as the web sources
