expanding record column

Hi

 

We have a Sharepoint Helpdesk and I need to create a Report to Show the SLA's for our Business Units.

The Business Unit is displayd as Record and i would like to expand the record to get the Title column and Customer Group Column.

 

When i Click on the button to Expand the Column, it just keeps Loading. (See Image attached)

 

I have tried Using advanced Editor to expand the Column but dont have any success. The code i am using is #"BusinessUnit" = Table.ExpandRecordColumn(#"BusinessUnit", {"Title", "CustomerGroup"}, {"BusinessUnit.Title", "BusinessUnit.CustomerGroup"})

 

Can anyone please assist as i need to have these to Columns (Title and CustomerGroup) in the same table as all the other columns

    Can you click the highlighted "record" in that column to see what's inside? By the way, what is the data source in your case?

        I'm not familar with Sharepoint, what exact is that in sharepoint, a list or whatever? I'd like to try reproduce your issue if I could get more details.

         

        By the way, could you try to filter your orginal dataset to have only one rows and then try to expand. I doubt it is some performance issue.
