Discard Query Changes

The query editor only has two options "Apply Now", and "Apply Later". What if I've messed up my query and never want to apply the changes? Please bring back the ability to discard changes made during the time the query editor was open

Yes its crazy that 1 year after GA and we still don't have undo or even Discard in the Query Editor. Instead I have to constantly drop in and out of that window and Save the whole file after each query change, to have a rollback point. I tend to edit queries in a parallel Excel workbook to avoid this, then copy and paste their scripts across - but that is also painful.

Yes, this is a needed option. The discard option needs to be added to ALL of the dialog boxes and prompts in power bi desktop, that currently ask to save or apply pending changes.

You just remove the steps that you want to discard in applied steps.

Yes! How hard would it be to add a "Close without saving changes" option?

This is available in Excel. It would be great if Power BI had this functionality as well.

This is painful, so straightforward in Excel.
