Using PowerBI Desktop with Sharepoint 0365 - have a Sharepoint list that I can connect to and refresh.
I have made several changes to column names and column formats in the list, the changes are not showing up when I establish connection from PBI, even when I start from scratch.
Data in the columns is updated correctly.
Hi @loginj,
I have made several changes to column names and column formats in the list, the changes are not showing up when I establish connection from PBI, even when I start from scratch.
Could you try clearing cache under File -> Option -> Data load -> Data Cache Management Options first, then creating a new pbix file to import your SharePoint list data from scratch to see if it works?![]()
Regards
Using PowerBI Desktop and Sharepoing O365 - I am able to access the Sharepoint List and refresh no problem.
I have made several changes to column names, those changes are not showing up in PowerBI integration, even starting from scratch.
Data in the columns is updating as expected.
