Error on creating a table based with Direct Query Connection to a Power BI Dataset

Submitted by Anonymous on ‎11-16-2022 03:21 AM

I was creating a new table based on information coming from a Direct Query Table which is stored in a Power BI Dataset (I'm using a composite data model). This dataset is connected to an Azure SQL Database.

 

The expression is quite simple:

 

New Table =
        SUMMARIZECOLUMNS('Store'[Store Id],
     "# Sales", [# Sales]
            )
 
This was working before I updated to the latest version of Power BI Desktop (October 2022). The solution for now was to downgrade to the previous one (September 2022).
 
Could you please check? If you need more information, please let me know.

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

Do you have related detailed error message? What is the message it displays when an error occurs, for example?

Hi @Anonymous,

 

The error is the following:

pedroamaro90_0-1669042025561.png

 

 

I just created a very easy table that is working well before the October's version.

 

 

 

 

If it is useful, I attach part of the rror message (I replaced the table name by ***).

 

Feedback Type:
Frown (Error)

Error Message:
<ccon>Unable to convert a value to the data type requested for table '' column '***'.
</ccon>
