CSV column format changed, How to adapt??
There's an optional keyword in Power Query M that you can set which enables these changes to be ignored. Here's our blog post on how to use it. CoP TIP: Prevent column changes from breaking your Power BI model - Marquee Insights

Unfortunately this doesnt fix my issue.
Columns are still being shifted to the left and therefore will show up empty as data type dont match - which is not what I want.
I want to be able to dynamically remove those new columns.

Ah ok. I think Nate's approach should work, assuming they don't rename columns. This issue is what lead me to find the optional parameter.
