See records not saving changes

Hi all

 

When editing the see records section within Power BI Desktop the changes are not being saved.

 

I have tried to add columns in which are not text, this hasn't worked - I have worked around by converting the column to varchar within the query.

 

I have then tried to move and rename this newly added column within the 'see records' section however the changes are not saved - again, I have worked around this by editing the query and renaming fields and reorganising them how I want them to appear within the 'see records' section.

 

These workarounds do solve the issue, however, I am left baffled why there is a whole section within Power BI Desktop which allows you to 'edit' the layout/ordering/include additional fields and not save them.

 

Has anyone else had this issue and can provide a solution?

 

Cheers,

Wayne

Thanks,
