Error type 6: How to select columns to be uploaded to the model
Hello,
I'm working with the CQD connector with Direct Query. I finished to build my report and I now would like to eliminate the columns that I don't need from the model to improve the speed and performance of the entire report.
I found out that I can't. I tried deleting the columns (both one by one and with the Choose Columns button) and I get an error type 6 (see screenshot below):
This is the original query:
Is there a way to modify it in a way that I can select what columns I want to use and not update the others?
Thanks!

Hi Anonymous ,
I know little about this.
But, to my experience, maybe you can try to use Query Parameter.
Reference:
Data and reports in Call Quality Dashboard (CQD);
Power BI Desktop Query Parameters, Part2, Dynamic Data Masking and Query Parameters;
Using The RelativePath And Query Options With Web.Contents() In Power Query And Power BI M Code.

Bump, same issue on the same data source (MicrosoftCallQuality) in DirectQuery mode. There are no workarounds that I can find due to the fact that filtering is not possible using DAX or M in DirectQuery mode.
