Sharepoint Adapter: FieldValuesAsText does not work in PowerBI service as from May

This issue that started early May, seems to be fixed in the latest Desktop version, but after doing a refresh in the online Service it still fails.

I have reports refresh from Sharepoint lists twice a day, now I need to refresh in the Desktop version and publish each time.

Pls fix this soon !!

There was an error when processing the data in the dataset.

This column 'GeographicalArea' is extracted from  FieldvalueasText. 

It worked fine until recently.

 

 

Hi @wvanpeel,

It's amazing, tt works fine? Please mark your right reply as answer. So more people will benefit from it.

Hi Angelia,

It does not work fine, I said it "worked" fine in the online service until recently.  

Check my first submission text.  It comes with an error doing a refresh data in the online service. 
In latest Desktop version the refresh works fine and I can re-publish also fine.

 

Another topic (check last comment) also mentions the same issue.
