Hi lg_analyst
A view is a virtual table defined by a SQL query. When you create a view, you query it in the same way you query a table. When a user queries the view, the query results contain data only from the tables and fields specified in the query that defines the view. So I think disable the option Require partition filter for the actual table might be helpful.
In addition, have you performed the same operations in Power Query Desktop? If it works in Power Query Desktop, you can try copying the query from Desktop to Dataflow and check the result.
