identify the originial datasource

Hello All

How do I identify the originial datasource , after it renamed in Power BI Model.
As an example , let us say , I have two views , employee_v and dept_V and then I rename it to
Employee and Departments ; and also also rename few of the columns .

From where , can I get the originial datasource ( both the view and column names) ?

Thanks in Advance.

Hi @zahirmohideen ,
The easier and quicker way I find is to rather use the Data Source settings, which you can find in Power BI Desktop by clicking on the arrow beneath Edit Queries and then selecting Data source Settings .

And for Columns , You can go to Power Query and Check manually in the Advanced Editor. In Adavanced Editor you can also find the source .
