"View errors" disappear in new versions of Power BI Desktop

Hello,

 

In the previous version like August 2020 version of Power BI Desktop, when you load some data and close and apply the query editor. And you have some errors from Power Query editor it shows you "View errors" like this :

 

View_Errors_PBI.JPG

 

But now it's showing nothing and replace errors directly by null value.

 

How to get this pop-up again in the last version of Power BI Desktop ?

 

Thank you,

Lovebo

Hi @Lovebo01 ,

I test on the lastest version:2.96.701.0 64-bit ,the function you describe remains normal.

You could try to reload the lastest version ,and reinstall.You also could also see below to catch the Error Rows in Power Query:

@Lovebo01 , if you have already defined steps it might take that.  Also, there can be some changes in the engine, the way it handles the error.

But if replacement is correct then it is a good to change. if not what was expected behviour

I expect to see by my self the errors to correct them.

 

The view errors was very useful because after this we can have a table with only the errors without looking for them.

It was very useful.
