SharePoint list table is empty

Update:

While I am the owner of my site collection and all subsites in SharePoint, there is something wonky with the permissions for the parent and one subsite, but I can get to my task list for all other subsites.  Trying to figure out the permission differences now, but at least I figured out half of it :)!

 

 

 

Hello,

 

Preface - I am not a coder.  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks much in advance.  Kerry

 

I am using PowerBI desktop and am linking to my SharePoint lists via OData (http://siteurl/_vti_bin/listdata.svc).  When I connect, I see a bunch of tables, but some are empty.  Specifically, the Task table.

 

Few things to note:

- I have a SharePoint site collection with several subsites.  What I was hoping for is a task list for each subsite.  Each site has the exact same structure for the task list.

- I have customized the task list, but am using the "New experience" for SharePoint, so the data types should all be aligned with the column content.

- I've tried to log out and log back in and refresh the data.

 

Few screen shots might help...

@Anonymous ,

 

You might need to check the permission. Clear permissions in data source settings and try again.
