Desktop Refresh Error: Query "references other queries or steps ... "

Hi 057Sophie ,

I don't see any external sources in your query either. However, I find that the table and column which Power BI Desktop reports the error on, are not always the same query that contains the actual error. And that being said, this is indeed exactly what I have too, getting these errors where there is no obvious cause for one.

However, for this specific query, your external source seems to be loaded in #"01 Import Mail". Make sure you don't have any references to other queries there (such as merges, of filters).
