All data is null
- 3 years ago
Sorted Rows in Power Query will not affect sorting of data in Visuals. The ONLY reason to have Sorted Rows in Power Query is if the sorting is needed for something like a Row Number column or Running Total, where the order is important. In your charts and graphs, you always have the ability to sort by some column in the visual.
Try removing the Sort operation to make your query go faster.
Now to your issue, try filtering the data to remove NULLs. I bet this is Excel data, which is infamous for having extra rows and columns that nobody wants.

Thank you for your help ToddChitt.
I removed both Sorted Rows and the data is displaying in power query now. Visuals are unaffected as you predicted. Thank you!
I can see now in my data section (not power query) my data is blank - would you know the reason for this? Please see screenshot below.
