I needed to remove a field from my dataset (source).
Power BI is failing to Refresh, obviously, because it is looking for this particular column - now no longer in the dataset.
Is there anyway through the Query Editor, to modify it looking for this particular column - and allow the refresh to continue? The dataset remains the same, with the exception of this removed column.
Thanks!
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi irnm8dn,
Click Advanced Editor and modify the M code in it. If the column [Creative size] name has been changed in your data source, you should also modify the column name in Advanced Editor.

you need to edit the steps that refer to that Column, and remove the references from Syntax - e.g. Changing Type, Reordering, Renaming, Unpivoting, Applying filters, etc.
