[danextian]

Hi,

Has anyone encountered this error when trying to expand a column or previewing its cells.

DataSource.Error: invalid query locator
Details:
List

If so, what  did you do to resolve this issue?

Thanks in advance.

Hi @danextian were you able to find a solution? As a workaround, maybe you can try to test your connection with a 3rd party connector. I've tried windsor.ai, supermetrics and funnel.io. I stayed with windsor because it is much cheaper so just to let you know other options. In case you wonder, to make the connection first search for the Salesforce connector in the data sources list:

After that, just grant access to your Salesforce account using your credentials, then on preview and destination page you will see a preview of your Salesforce fields:

There just select the fields you need. It is also compatible with custom fields and custom objects, so you'll be able to export them through windsor.  Finally, just select PBI as your data destination and finally just copy and paste the url on PBI --> Get Data --> Web --> Paste the url.

Hi @danextian,

If possible can you share your .pbix file?
Not really able to suggest anything with the screenshot.

Thanks !!

Hi @prateekraina

Sorry for the delayed response.

Can't share the pbix as it is confidential. What I am trying to do is to expand a column from two merged queries from two different Saleforce objects. 

It seems that some of the records in that column is not a table but a list thus the error.
