Data Load Stuck on Waiting for server

Hi, This is my code and I am trying to load the data but it is stuck on waiting for server 'servername'. Any help please?

 

let
// Connect to SQL Server database
Source = Sql.Database("**SERVERNAME**"),
// Access the 'archivedbookings' table
dbo_archivedbookings = Source{[Schema = "dbo", Item = "archivedbookings"]}[Data],
// Change data types for specific columns
#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(
dbo_archivedbookings,
{
{"id", type text},
{"bookingId", type text},
{"pickupZoneId", type text},
{"completedByCompanyID", type text},
{"callLogId", type text},
{"vehicleId", type text},
{"driverId", type text}
}
),
// Change data types for additional columns
#"Changed Type1" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(
#"Changed Type",
{
{"viaZoneId1", type text},
{"viaZoneId2", type text},
{"viaZoneId3", type text},
{"destinationZoneId", type text},
{"companyId", type text},
{"customerId", type text}
}
),
// Keep only the 'typeOfBooking' column
#"Removed Other Columns" = Table.SelectColumns(#"Changed Type1", {"typeOfBooking"}),
// Replace null values with "BLANK" in the 'typeOfBooking' column
#"Replaced Null Values" = Table.ReplaceValue(
#"Removed Other Columns",
null,
"BLANK",
Replacer.ReplaceValue,
{"typeOfBooking"}
),
// Remove duplicate rows based on 'typeOfBooking'
#"Removed Duplicates" = Table.Distinct(#"Replaced Null Values"),
// Rename the 'typeOfBooking' column to 'Booking Type'
#"Renamed Columns" = Table.RenameColumns(
#"Removed Duplicates",
{{"typeOfBooking", "Booking Type"}}
)
in
#"Renamed Columns"

I don't know, but I would change the query so that the first step is to select the single column that you are selecting, and save yourself a bunch of unnecessary steps and type changes.

I’m usually answering from my phone, which means the results are visualized only in my mind. You’ll need to use my answer to know that it works—but it will work!!
