Data Source Column Name Mismatch in Power BI Report

I encountered a situation where a column name was modified in an online Excel file and then reverted back to its original name. The column names remain unchanged and match accurately.This Excel sheet is linked to a Power BI report, which is now showing an error indicating that the column cannot be found. How can I resolve this issue? Need help

    Hello bennypears . I would recommend refreshing your data. If the error persists, find the query in Power Query M, and find the step where it is erroring out, start from the source step. It could be somewhere in changed type step. Also check that the column name has no whitespace or captilization issues. 

     

    I hope it helps,
