Why my data on excel not reflecting on my power bi/power query, the excel screenshot is what it is supposed to show that came from the data page. I just do an update, I don't know why it does not show some of my data, I don't have any filter in power query.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Fraizerrrrr
There are a few potential reasons why your Excel data isn't updating in Power BI after refreshing, and several steps you can take to troubleshoot the issue:
Check the data source: Make sure that the data source (Excel file) is accessible and hasn't been moved, renamed, or deleted.
Ensure that the Excel file is not open by another user or process. Also, check that the worksheet and table names in Power BI match those in the Excel file.
Check the query settings: Verify that the "Enable Load" and "Include in Report Refresh" options are selected for each query.
Also, ensure that any filters or transformations in the query are not preventing the data from updating.
Check the refresh settings: Confirm that the data source is set to refresh automatically or that you are manually refreshing the data source when required.
Check the data model: Ensure that the Excel data is correctly imported into the data model and is visible in the Fields pane.
You can also try clearing the cache and refreshing the data model. Check for errors: Review the error messages displayed in the Query Editor or the Refresh Preview window to identify any issues that may be preventing the data from updating. I hope this information helps.
