Here's a draft post for the Power BI Ideas platform:
*Title:* "Column Selection During Data Import/Refresh"
*Description:*
When importing or refreshing data in Power BI, it would be incredibly useful to have the option to select specific columns to include or exclude. This feature would simplify data management, reduce errors, and improve overall efficiency.
*Benefits:*
- Reduced data volume and improved performance
- Enhanced data privacy and security
- Simplified data modeling and reporting
*Use Case:*
Many users work with large datasets and only need a subset of columns for their reports. By allowing column selection during import/refresh, users can streamline their workflow and focus on analyzing the most relevant data.
Point 1) uptime system can change any time any columns and data type. Power Bi having issues.
2) if some columns are missing from old files ite showing error, it should accept cloums which are available
3) new can have any containt but it should match with old contain and accept matching content
4) it should be simple to accommodate data, dag and drop. If no idea please revert me. Happy to help
