Text Data loading as int during SQL import

Hi,

I am loading data from MySQL database, I notice that some text data is getting indexed and loading as int values. I changed my setting to don't detect data type but that also didn't succeed. Can you please help me with this?

Regards

@KaushikR , Check if the getting changed at first change data type setup in Power query or was int before that.

 

If they are changed at the first step, you can remove them from that step
