Hi, I would like to export from powerbi to an excel workbook with a table already set up 
I use the template "Update an Excel file from PowerBI"
After the "On Power BI button Clicked", the next step is undate a row.  I fill it out but there is no key calue or key column in my download or the file I'm exporting to.

So I used the creation date since it was unique.
I try to populate they key Column / key value fields, but i have no unique id. so I use creation date as the field in the key column.

Now I can't get to any of the fields in the source or destination files.  So....I can't populate the fields, I can't seem to get past this step.  What am I doing wrong?

From the screen image. 
I don't ave  a key value so I'm forcing in a creation date which is unique on each record
The fields marked with [Blocked] are from the table.  But as you can see, no fields are available.
